4. SOME QUESTIONS FOR FUTURE?
What European coordination is needed?
SpW applications are series of niches
Distinct features and benefits
No user demand for coordination
We must show how coordination benefits space weather science & applications
What measurements are needed?
Raise awareness of measurements as European asset, build up measurement programmes
Link measurements and services!

5. MORE QUESTIONS FOR FUTURE?
How will research lead to new/better services?
Raise awareness of knowledge transfer
Models are key issue for transfer
Do we need a roadmap exercise?

6. How to move from research to operations?
FUNDING
How to move from research to operations?
Raise user awareness
Especially in operational areas of government and industry
