RadioNet – the European Radio Astronomy Consortium – was established in December 2020 and consists of 25+ key radio astronomy institutes and infrastructures from Europe and beyond. These include all the major radio astronomy telescopes and arrays in Europe, covering a wide range of frequencies and angular resolutions. RadioNet acts to explore cooperative and strategic opportunities for the radio astronomy community.

The RadioNet Consortium is the continuation of a very successful collaboration of EU programmes over the last 20 years and is widely recognised. The RadioNet partners work together on the mechanisms and funding support (often from the EC) to deliver trans-national access to their infrastructures, on R&D to continually improve the capability of these facilities and to educate and train the scientific community to make the best use of these instruments.
