Evidence-based, bespoke strategies for a resilient knowledge ecosystem
Through our Strategic Support services, IOI engages directly with infrastructure providers, funders, and institutions to implement IOI research recommendations, further adoption of open infrastructure, and build the resilience and sustainability of the knowledge sector.
In each strategic support engagement, IOI leverages the extensive experience of its team in the research and scholarship field, as well as its significant research expertise, to design and implement evidence-based, bespoke strategies to support our partners.
How we can help
Open Infrastructure discovery and due diligence
For funders, institutions, and networks looking to grow their use of open infrastructure, IOI can provide targeted research and recommendations, including discovery, due diligence, and collecting stakeholder feedback to inform the adoption and implementation of open infrastructure solutions.
Strengthening governance, stakeholder engagement and financial sustainability
For infrastructure providers, our strategic support services improve the health and sustainability of their organisations by strengthening their governance, financial sustainability, organisational structure, and stakeholder engagement– key pillars that are integral to the continued operation and scalability of their services.
For funders, engaging IOI to support the sustainability and resilience of their grantees can help ensure that investments in their grantees have the broadest impact possible.
