About this opportunity

Expected Outcome: European leadership in foresight activities on future enabling technologies and their transformational potential in industrial, societal and environmental terms. Increased collaboration between academia, industry players and other relevant stakeholders in iterative and multidisciplinary approaches for co-creating the enabling technologies of the future. Alignment with national or regional initiatives creating an expanding innovation ecosystem, anchored in local contexts across Europe, for selected emerging technologies. Accelerating the pick-up of novel advanced technology by industry and society. Scope: Proposals should establish a forum for emerging interdisciplinary areas and new technological visions. Proposals should enable and support a broad range of participants (across disciplines in science and engineering, RTOs, industry sectors, stakeholders) to meet, mutually inspire, cooperate and develop together innovative ideas for future enabling digital technologies covering from fundamental research up to proof of concept. Proposals should involve and be driven by representatives of the relevant actors of the field (e.g., academia, RTOs, industry including SMEs). Proposals should consider civil society engagement for seeking wider input. Proposals should connect with analogous EC-internal activities, either ongoing (e.g. FOSI4EIC involving EISMEA and JRC) or foreseen, such as the Competitiveness Coordination Tool and the technology observatory envisaged in the FP10 regulation. Beneficiaries that intend to transfer ownership or grant an exclusive licence must formally notify the granting authority (i.e. DG-CNECT and HaDEA) before the intended transfer or licensing takes place and the granting authority may up to four years after the end of the action object to a transfer of ownership or the exclusive licensing of results.
