    <h1 id="motivation" class="alert-heading">Why HIFIS?</h1>
    <p>
        The top position of Helmholtz research is increasingly based on cross-centre and international cooperation and
        common access to data treasure and -services. At the same
        time the significance of a sustainable software development for the research process is recognised.
    </p><p>
        HIFIS builds and sustains an excellent information environment for outstanding research in all Helmholtz research
        fields and a seamless and performant IT-infrastructure connecting knowledge from all centres. 
        This includes a secure and easy-to-use collaborative environment with efficiently accessible ICT services from anywhere. 
        HIFIS also supports the development of research software with a high level of quality, visibility and
        sustainability.

        <p>
            HIFIS is embedded in the context of the Helmholtz Information &amp; Data Science Incubator 
            and hence has close collaboration with the four other incubator platforms.
