Description

This presentation defines the concept of an academic event and explores the development of PIDs for such events, addressing key challenges and requirements from various stakeholders. It focuses on ConfIDent, a metadata registry service designed to fill the gap in research information infrastructure by providing a DOI and standardized metadata aligning with ConfIDent metadata schema and schema.org for academic events. While PIDs for publications, researchers, or organizations are well-established, academic events lack similar structured identification.
