1 The HBO Knowledge Base offers public access to research results from Dutch Universities of Applied Sciences.
2 A plan has been created for the future merger of the HBO Knowledge Base with the Podium of the SIA National Regional Body for Practical Research (Nationaal Regieorgaan Praktijkgericht Onderzoek SIA), which will continue under a new name. The infrastructure will be maintained, but more attention will be paid to promoting and marketing it to researchers in order to increase the number of publications deposited in the knowledge base. Plans are also being devised for active editing within the new platform, and maybe even an editing network enabling the use of regional differences and networks of disciplines.
