The emergence of open science, relying on the availability of open and FAIR data, has widened the space of opportunity for natural science collections. It enables, through the process of digital transformation, to go above and beyond geographical limitations and to open up collections to more people and for the first time to new communities of scientific practice. DISCCo’s value proposition lies in the way it supports European collections in delivering digital twins of specimens in an attempt to create novel community curation and impact delivery mechanisms.
