Abstract: The paper describes the pathway towards building a unique research infrastructure and the key requirements set by ESFRI in order to enter ESFRI Roadmap and to gain its support along the lifecycle of a research infrastructure. It focuses on the financial matters requested by ESFRI throughout the all phases that METROFOOD-RI has passed through so far, underlining that not only the scientific case and its positioning in the European RIs’ landscape are important while evaluating a future RI, but also how the RI will ensure its long-term financial sustainability. METROFOOD-RI is a distributed pan-European research infrastructure of global interest, in which IBA Bucharest has been an essential partner since its conception in 2015. The document showcases an overview of the architecture and organisation of METROFOOD-RI, its core services, the work performed in preparing a sound cost book, financial plan, cash-flow and business model.
