About the project
The state-of-the-art computing resources lay grounds to carry out research in areas which have previously been out of reach, increasing the possibilities for scientific breakthroughs with extensive societal impact, such as understanding climate change.
The new data management and high-performance computing (HPC) infrastructure will lay grounds for innovation and new data-based business opportunities in areas such as platform economy and the development of AI.
Impact of the project:
The highly competitive HPC resources can be used by Europe's scientific, industrial and public users, offering a framework for Europe to strengthen its position as one of the pioneers of the data-driven economy. The experts from the consortium bring with them a high level of competence from computing, training and data management.

About the project
The LIFE Lit4Nature aims to establish a stronger, evidence-based system for biodiversity conservation and restoration across Lithuania. Major focus will be placed on strengthening the national biodiversity monitoring system, improving data collection and integration and on introducing innovative monitoring approaches to support evidence-based conservation and restoration decisions.
Impact of the project:
The project aims to boost stronger biodiversity and ecosystem recovery across Lithuania through nationwide conservation and restoration. Further, it wants to achieve better national coordination for efficient and well targeted conservation measures and their funding.
Funding instrument LIFE Programme

Spinverse’s role
Spinverse experts supported the coordinator throughout the two-stage LIFE Strategic Nature Project application process from concept note development to submitting the final proposal.
The support included workshops that brought together the proposal team to sharpen the project concept and focus the application on the most relevant and critical aspects of Lithuania's
Prioritised Action Framework for Natura 2000 and the forthcoming National Restoration Plan.
Spinverse’s strategic guidance, hands-on support and thorough quality reviews helped us focus on the critical aspects, strengthen the proposal logic and present its impacts convincingly.
