- presidents might consider also more collective benefits.

-  researchers: Findings are openly distributed and are accessible to anyone, this means easier distribution of research results, easier collaboration due to open data

- scientific institutions: Preservation and availability of research results inspite of highly mobile scientists 

- science: anyone can participate, findings are shared and distributed broadly, less duplicate studies saves money, better reproducability which makes science better

Open Science is getting popular among universities and other research facilities like Leibniz, Fraunhofer, Helmholtz and Max Planck institutions. Open Access policies are passed and mainly universities are implementing Open Data policies. These policies can be a first step of promoting Open Science among researchers and to overcome the problem of scientists' reservation towards sharing, which is mentioned several times as important challenge in interviews within Ten Tales of Drivers & Barreirs in Data Sharing, ODE Project.

At  the moment, the currency of science are papers in highly ranked journals, therefore they are properly archived/stored (Kann man hier von Archiv sprechen?). But science consists of more than papers and the current practice of focus on quantity (in addition to quality?/ same researchers need to write more and in addition review more) is not sustainable.
