Open Research Data (ORD) is gaining momentum in Switzerland, driven by the Swiss National ORD Strategy. To accelerate progress, the Swiss Data Science Center (SDSC) has established a dedicated ORD team to support research communities in maturing their Research Data Infrastructures (RDIs) through a structured approach and targeted initiatives.We recognize that RDIs evolve through distinct levels: from isolated data, code, and models to standardized and findable digital research assets, then interoperable building blocks, culminating in an integrated ORD ecosystem. To facilitate this journey, we offer a flexible blueprint compatible with multiple domains and the latest good practices in data science. This blueprint serves as a practical starting point for communities to establish and evolve their RDIs. To demonstrate our RDI maturation framework, we introduce ORD hackathons focused on agile, cost-efficient and community-centric solutions. By bringing together RDI builders and users, these hackathons offer a platform for rapid collaborative prototyping and the evaluation of new systems. This combined approach of a structured framework and hands-on hackathons empowers researchers to create FAIR, interoperable, and integrated RDI ecosystems.
