Legal Framework published

Panlab publishes a recommendation for the Panlab organisation

This Panlab deliverable deals with issues related to the legal framework to be applied for a future Pan-European Laboratory as an organisation (Panlab organisation) which will establish a federation of test-beds in accordance to the Panlab concept and which will provide various testing services to its customers. Thus, this deliverable gives a definition of the future Panlab organisation and the respective Panlab Office, and considers in details various options for its legal establishment: profit/loss and non-profit legal entities or self-organising entity. The recommendation given in this document is that a future Panlab organisation should be established as a non-profit legal entity with the possibility for testbeds, which federate through the Panlab organisation, to offer testing services on a commercial basis.
