4. Our 2025 Vision
As we look to the future, these questions emerge from our core strategies:
➢ 1. RESEARCHER EXPERIENCE: researchers to experience ORCID as a useful,
delightful, and time saving service.
➢ 2. HIGH QUALITY DATA: researchers and the organizations they interact with to
consider the ORCID record as a reliable and easily accessible data source and to
have implemented processes that enable researchers to share their ORCID
information.
➢ 3. ORGANIZATIONAL RESILIENCE: ORCID transition from start-up to scale-up
including more structured evidence for decision making and scaling services
through partnerships with consortia and service providers
➢ 4. BROAD ADOPTION: researchers in each region to be receiving and sharing
their ORCID record information with publishers, funders, and research
institutions
