Top 10 Funding Opportunities:

EU Co-Funded Partnership on Raw Materials for the Green and Digital Transition (Co-Funded Partnership Raw Materials for the Green and Digital Transition)

The project supported under this topic is expected to contribute to outcomes including, but not limited to, aligning national R&I priorities in raw materials with EU policy on raw materials.

Materials Commons for Europe (IA)

The project funded under this topic is expected to contribute to outcomes including, but not limited to, creating a pioneer federated digital infrastructure for advanced materials research and development, demonstrating use cases facilitating industrial uptake and offering a feedback loop to academic research.

ISOS Pilot Mission Detailed Design – HOST Component

The strategic objective of this topic is to develop capabilities to ‘Act in Space’ through demonstrating in space a pilot mission by 2030 related to ISOS. The selected project is expected to contribute to outcomes including, but not limited to, a sustainable, highly automated, flexible and economically viable space infrastructure, building on technologies and concepts for a circular economy in space, e.g. plug-and-play spacecraft functionality introducing recycling/re-use of spacecraft modules/functionalities.

Challenge-Driven GenAI4EU Booster (RIA) (AI/Data/Robotics Partnership)

Projects supported under this topic are expected to contribute to outcomes including, but not limited to, significant technology progress and innovation through challenge-driven approach in the fields of aerospace, pharma/drug development or telecommunication networks.

Solving Issues in Carbon-Neutral Iron and Steel Making Processes with Diverse Input Materials of Varying Quality (Clean Steel Partnership) (RIA)

This topic aims to enable a fast and reliable transition to innovative technology pathways for carbon-neutral iron and steel making by tackling fundamental problems and boundary conditions with a system-level approach. Projects are expected to contribute to outcomes including, but not limited to, solving system-level issues within at least two low-CO2 production routes.

ISOS Pilot Mission Detailed Design – Servicing Component

The strategic objective of this topic is to develop capabilities to ‘Act in Space’ through demonstrating in space a pilot mission by 2030 related to ISOS. Projects are expected to contribute to outcomes including, but not limited to, a sustainable, highly automated and digitalised, flexible and economically viable space infrastructure, building on technologies and concepts for a circular economy in space, e.g. plug-and-play spacecraft functionality introducing recycling/re-use of spacecraft modules/functionalities.

ISOS Pilot Mission Detailed Design – Logistics Component

The project supported under this topic are expected to contribute to outcomes including, but not limited to, a sustainable, highly automated, flexible and economically viable space infrastructure, building on technologies and concepts for a circular economy in space, e.g. plug-and-play spacecraft functionality introducing recycling/re-use of spacecraft modules/functionalities.

Developing and Embedding Upcycling Technologies into Viable Business (Processes4Planet Partnership) (IA)

Proposals submitted under this topic are expected to contribute to outcomes including, but not limited to, developing processes for the upcycling of end-of-life materials in an integrated way, including the development of better novel separation, sorting and processing technologies as well as digitalisation and automation of the processes as necessary.

Supporting the AI/ML Digital Transition of Copernicus Services

The project supported under this topic is expected to contribute to outcomes including, but not limited to, integrated AI/ML strategy across Copernicus Services, value chains and workflows.

Open Internet Stack: Development of Technological Commons/Open-Source 3C Building Blocks

The project supported under this topic is expected to contribute to outcomes including, but not limited to, a publicly available and operational stack of strategic commons focusing on internet technologies for trust, transactions, connectivity, and decentralisation implementing the European vision of next generation digital infrastructures, in particular the 3Cs networks (in close cooperation with the 3Cs large scale pilots), and the wider Web 4.0.
