Go8 Digital Futures Group

The information "revolution" continues to have a profound impact on universities and the environments in which they function. Changes in education and research methods, research training, scholarly communication, publication and collaboration are largely being led by research institutes and research intensive universities.

The development of enabling infrastructures,  associated management  policies and practices are foci for adapting to these changes. 

The Go8 Digital Futures Group exists to:

*identify common strategic objectives;

*promote best practices;

*promote opportunities for collaborative projects;

*exchange information and facilitate benchmarking.
