The European Union funded H2020 ESCAPE project has brought together the ESFRI and other world class research infrastructures in High Energy and Nuclear Physics, Astroparticle Physics, and Astronomy. In the four years of the project many synergistic and collaborative aspects have been highlighted and explored, from pure technical collaboration on common solutions for data management, AAI, and workflows, through development of new tools, such as AI/ML codes, and in education and training, for example in the area of research software and citizen science. In addition, the project has shown that the scientific communities have a lot in common, can act as a single voice towards the funding agencies, the European Commission, and other key programmes such as the implementation of ESOC (European Open Science Cloud). Consequently, ESCAPE partners consider forming a long-term international open collaboration that would exist independently of specific project funding, that can maintain the synergistic aspects of the cluster scientific communities. This work highlights the ESCAPE achievements and outlines some of the goals of the new collaboration.
