From an ORCID Blog Post:

Over the last 8 months, we have taken a deep look at our core strategies and developed a 2025 vision focused on reliability and resiliency. Our vision has three main components:

  • a unique identifier
  • a set of APIs to enable researchers to connect their iD with their affiliations and contributions, and
