Over the years, CERN received many requests from partner institutions wanting to use it. As a consequence we opened up our own server, <strong>indico.cern.ch</strong>, to the wider community, which has allowed so far more than <strong>6,000</strong> researchers in more than 50 countries to organize their workshops and conferences. The <a href="https://indico.cern.ch/category/5372/">“Global Indico”</a> category now hosts an impressive <strong>12,000 events</strong>, all operating under a <a href="https://cern.service-now.com/service-portal?id=kb_article&n=KB0004606">fair use policy</a>. Encouraged by this critical mass, we are embarking on a new, ambitious mission: to elevate scientific events on a global scale through a <strong>dedicated server</strong>.</p> <p>indico.global will cater specifically to smaller research centers, laboratories, universities, and educational institutions lacking the resources or expertise to establish their own Indico server. It will offer the complete Indico experience, supported by a production-grade service from the same team that develops the tool at CERN. Best of all, this service will remain free to use for all users!</p> <p>indico.global is set to launch in <strong>December 2024</strong>, so mark your calendars and stay tuned for more updates and detailed instructions on how to host <strong>your event</strong> on indico.global!</p> <p>In addition, the existing <a href="https://indico.cern.ch/category/5372/">“Global Indico”</a> category will be <strong>migrated</strong> to indico.global at the beginning of 2025. After the migration, all links pointing to Global Indico events on indico.cern.ch will automatically redirect to the new domain.</p> <p>If you currently use “Global Indico”, you will receive an email with the timeline and additional information to help you prepare for the upcoming migration.</p> <p>We look forward to welcoming you all in the Indico community!</p> </article> </div> </div> <div class="infinite-spinner"></div> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section class="safety-net-section section bg-blue-light"> <div class="section-content-short container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-8 col-sm-8 col-xm-12 block-center"> <h2></h2> </div> </div> </div> </section> <script type="text/javascript"> $(function() { $(document).delegate('*.post-content img', 'click', function(event) { $(this).attr('data-remote', $(this).attr('src')); event.preventDefault(); $(this).ekkoLightbox(); }); }) </script> </div> <footer class="site-footer"> <div class="container footer-container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-9 col-12 block-center"> <div class="row footer-col-wrapper"> <div class="footer-col col-md-2 col-sm-4 col-12"> <h3 class="footer-col-title">PRODUCT</h3> <ul class="footer-col-list"> <li><a href="/">Home</a></li> <li><a href="/features/">Features</a></li> <li><a href="/getting-started/">Getting Started</a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="footer-col col-md-2 col-sm-4 col-12"> <h3 class="footer-col-title">SUPPORT</h3> <ul class="footer-col-list"> <li><a href="/about/">About Us</a></li> <li><a href="/contact/">Contact</a></li> <li><a href="https://docs.getindico.io/en/latest/">ReadTheDocs</a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="footer-col col-md-2 col-sm-4 col-12"> <h3 class="footer-col-title">OTHER</h3> <ul class="footer-col-list"> <li><a href="/blog/">Blog</a></li> <li><a href="https://github.com/indico/indico/releases">Releases</a></li> <li><a href="https://github.com/indico/indico/issues">Issues</a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="col-md-6 col-12 text-center footer-github-buttons"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-6 text-right"> <span class="github-btn hide" data-user="indico" data-repo="indico" data-type="watch" data-count="1"></span> </div> <div class="col-6 text-left"> <span class="github-btn hide" data-user="indico" data-repo="indico" data-type="fork" data-count="1"></span> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="footer-copyright"> <div class="container"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-10 col-12">Copyright © 2014–2025 CERN.
