    Meeting objectives
    The FAIR for Virtual Research Environments (FAIR4VREs) WG (under the umbrella of the Virtual Research Environments IG) is undertaking an analysis of gaps in applying existing FAIR principles to VREs, and wishes to gain feedback from VRE users and developers. 
    The working group has identified commonalities and differences in the application of FAIR to VREs based on a preliminary analysis of existing high-level principles as applied to data and software. The issues that need to be addressed in defining FAIR for VREs have been outlined, and these are the key questions around which we wish to engage the community at the Plenary.  
    The working group also wishes to crowdsource case studies on how VREs contribute to FAIRness of other digital objects and examples of guidance materials.
