NFDI4Chem is an initiative to build an open and FAIR infrastructure for research data management in chemistry. Since its launch in 2018 as a grass root movement, there has been enormous support from different partners within the chemistry community. The main fundamental aim of NFDI4Chem is to promote Open Science and Research Data Management (RDM) in accordance with the FAIR data principles. Thus, to create a holistic concept for access to and (re-)usability of research data. As project partner within the NFDI4Chem consortium the German Chemical Society (GDCh) has its main task in engaging with the chemistry community worldwide to create awareness for and foster the adoption of FAIR data management as well as to initiate processes to integrate RDM and data science into the chemistry curricula. Through its profound national and international network with chemical societies, publishers, and through its 27 divisions, GDCh strives to collect and analyse related communities’ requirements. Likewise, dissemination and training are intended for all career levels starting from undergraduates, in addition discipline-specific training material is developed. In collaboration with other partners, NFDI4Chem intends to also offer incentives for innovations.
