Licia Florio joins NORDUnet

Licia Florio  joins NORDUnet as Strategy and Policy Officer with our Strategic Engagement Division.

Licia will focus on support for European research infrastructures and research communities and our engagement in European partnerships. Her primary work will be with the Nordic NRENs to further develop the NORDUnet project portfolio and European engagement, and with European stakeholders such as the EC, GÉANT, EuroHPC, EOSC, and European NRENs, to build partnerships in support of research and education.

In her previous position as Senior Trust and Identity Manager at GÉANT, Licia headed and was involved in most of the initiatives that make up the current European and global authentication and authorisation infrastructure for research and education. In the latest years, she coordinated the Trust and Identity services managed via the GN4-3 project and she was heavily involved in the Erasmus+ activities aimed at enabling federated access for the Erasmus+ services.
