Website: http://www.chain-project.eu/
General objective: To promote and support scientific and technological collaboration through different e-Infrastructures established and operated in different continents, in order to define a step towards a global ecosystem of e-Infrastructures, which will allow– Virtual Research Communities (VRC), research groups and even individual researchers to access and make an efficient use of globally distributed resources (for example: computing, storage, data, services, tools, applications).

[accordion_item title='ELLA – Completed']
Began on: May 2nd, 2011
Finished in: January 2013
Funding: EC – FP7 - Capacities
Website: http://www.ella-int.eu/
General objective: To study alternatives to solve the lack of connectivity between Latin America and the EU, trough the promotion of a greater competitiveness between the providers in the submarine cables market. Thus, the results of this study, which is expected to lead to the construction of a new and efficient cable, will have the social impact of benefiting all users of telecommunication services. A timely installation may generate a fast investment return and therefore be appealing to partners from a commercial perspective.
Participants: GARR (Italy) – Coordinator, RedCLARA (Latin America), RNP (Brazil), FCCN (Portugal), RedIRIS - Red.es (Spain), Innova|Red (Argentina).

[accordion_item title='EVALSO – Completed']
Began on: November 4th 2010
Finished in: June 30th 22011
Funding: EC - FP7
Website: http://www.evalso.eu/evalso/
General objective: To allow virtual access to observatories in Latin America. World-class experimental facilities are usually located in remote places, which makes their exploitation socially and economically difficult. The European research community depends on such facilities to fulfil its role and here is where advanced network technologies can play a prevailing role. This project will make use of existing standards whenever possible.
Participants: Università di Trieste (Italy) – coordinator, ESO, GARR (Italy), Nederlandse Onderzoekschool voor Astronomie, INAF – Osservatorio Astronomico di Trieste, Queen Mary University of London, Latin American Cooperation of Advanced Networks (CLARA).
