EUMEDCONNECT3 provided a high-capacity dedicated Internet network for the research and education communities across the southern and eastern Mediterranean region, enabling scientists and academics to collaborate and engage in innovative, data-intensive international projects.

​With its direct links to GÉANT, the pan-European R&E network, EUMEDCONNECT3 provided access to over 50 million users at over 10,000 research and education establishments across Europe.

Initially running to the end of 2016, the project was later extended until the end of 2021.

EUMEDCONNECT2

EUMEDCONNECT2 served as a high-capacity IP-based data-communications network for the research and education communities in seven countries across the southern Mediterranean, enabling them to participate in collaborative projects.

Offering a direct link to GÉANT, its pan-European counterpart, EUMEDCONNECT2 allowed approximately 2 million users in around 700 institutions across North Africa and the Middle East to collaborate with their peers at more than 4000 research and education establishments in Europe. EUMEDCONNECT2 provided the Mediterranean with a gateway to global research collaboration.

This project has finished.
