<p class="MsoNormal">To coincide with our OpenCon London satellite event (opencon2017.org/opencon_2017_london)&nbsp;on 21st November,&nbsp;Know-Center, Digital Science and ScienceOpen are excited to team up with Authorea to announce an essay competition for short blog
 posts on this year’s Open Access Week theme of <b>“Open in order to …”</b>. This theme is an invitation to answer the question of
<b>what concrete benefits can be realized by making scholarly research outputs openly available</b>. “Open in order to…” serves as a prompt to
<b>move beyond talking about openness in itself and focus on what openness enables</b>—in an individual discipline, at a particular institution, or in a specific context;
<b>then to take action</b> to realize these benefits.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Your post, of no more than 750 words, should tell us what drives you towards open practices. What does openness help you to achieve that you couldn’t do otherwise?</b> “Open in order to increase the impact of my scholarship.” “Open enables
 more equitable participation in research.” “Open helps to improve public health.” These are just a few examples of how this question can be answered – we hope you’ll come up with many other interesting answers!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Submissions will be via </b>Authorea: <a href="https://www.authorea.com/users/111970/articles/206557-announcing-opencon2017-london-blog-competition">

<p class="MsoNormal">The&nbsp;<b>deadline is 10th November 17.00 CET</b>, so that all submissions will be open online for the kick-off of the&nbsp;main OpenCon event in Berlin. Voting will then take place for 10 days via a Google Form. The winner will then be announced
 on November 21st at OpenCon London, and awarded a cash prize (made up of all the money received from the nominal entrance fee we’re charging to try to make sure those who sign up turn up!)<o:p></o:p></p>
