ATGthePodcast 304 - A Conversation with Paolo Manghi, CTO, OpenAIRE, and Researcher, Italian National Research Council
Episode 304
Monday, 26 January, 2026
Today's episode features guest host Michael Upshall (guest editor, Charleston Briefings) who talks with Paolo Manghi, CTO, OpenAIRE, and Researcher, Italian National Research Council. Paolo is a prominent figure in European Research Infrastructures. In this conversation, he talks about his career path, first earning a degree in information science in Pisa, then a degree in science and technology, and then a PhD in research on data and databases before working with data infrastructures and joining CNR, a pioneer in the field of technical innovation and scientific advancements and who he says coined many famous terminologies used in the industry today. Paolo talks about dividing his time between being a researcher and working at the worldwide open scholarly communication infrastructure OpenAire which he describes as being more than a technical platform, that provides a trusted forum for policymakers, funders, institutions, and researchers to share data and shape open science together.
