  26. Conclusions • Negative • Large effort to keep all IT services running due to ageing • Lack of capacity to address the user needs • Lack of coherent sustained funding from FCT • for operation, maintenance and improvement of e-infrastructures • despite WLCG MoU signed by the ministry • Ministry focus moved to HPC (HEP needs HTC not HPC) • Future on INCD and non-HPC e-infrastructures unclear • Positive • Some capacity increase through INCD provided resources • Additional human resources through INCD • INCD is participating in RNCA and will manage part of BOB cluster • INCD is a member of the Iberian HPC network RICA • Operational costs for RNCA + RICA related activities is foreseen
