“Services philosophy”
• Innovation focused on creating operational services
• KISS: generic needs
• If useful, internationally developed & globally connected
• Distinguish between basic services and temporary ICT services and showcases
• Only provide services that the market does not deliver
• Active portfolio management
![Page 26: SURFnet Dante](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051013/547c5116b4af9fd3158b513b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Types of services
• Basic services (core package) provide the linking factor between users and the services and tools offered by suppliers and institutions
• Temporary ICT services and showcases show users what is possible and thus provide an impetus for new types of collaboration and the sharing of tools. If these services are successful, the role of SURFnet as a service provider for these temporary ICT services must be taken over by the market
