DESCRIPTION:For more than a decade\, the **ePIC** (**Persistent Identifier 
 Consortium for eResearch**) initiative has been delivering a **robust PID 
 infrastructure** across the globe. In that time\, it has expanded both in 
 terms of members and the suite of standardised services offered. \n\nCome 
 see if **ePIC has something to offer you** as a user\, project collaborato
 r\, service provider\, or perhaps even as consortium member!

DESCRIPTION:SURF has been providing IT support to research and academia sin
 ce 1971 and has been providing PIDs since 2012. Over the last 14 years we 
 have expanded our services across many domains\, set up PID consortiums\, 
 helped draft national and international policy\, helped develop PID select
 ion and service validation tools\, developed new PID services and are even
  hosting this conference! Let our services team take you through SURF’s 
 journey and present what went well\, what you might want to imitate\, and 
 what you definitely shouldn’t do! We want to inspire you about what an o
 rganisation can do and the impact you can have as well as pass on our wisd
 om to save you some time and a lot of frustration (while maybe sharing a c
 ouple of laughs)!
