In this session, we will discuss steps towards building an ongoing international collaboration to simplify federated interoperation among testbeds and provide experimenter access to testbed and connectivity resources for use in multi-continent experiment designs. Several presenters will briefly discuss available resources, after which we will have an open and informal discussion to identify the next concrete steps to take towards federation and establish a small working group to advance this process.
