Location ProgrammesAn information session on the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) 2020 call for proposals for the Research and Innovation Staff Exchange (RISE) was organised by the Belgian Science Policy Office (BELSPO), the Fund for Scientific Research – FNRS (F.R.S.-FNRS) and NCP Flanders.
The information session was organised to support researchers/research organisations/industry in the preparation of their MSCA RISE application.
RISE funds short-term exchanges for staff to develop careers combining scientific excellence with exposure to other countries and sectors. RISE enables more interaction between academia and non-academic organisations within Europe and worldwide.
Participation to the session was free and open to any researcher wishing to apply with a Belgian Host Institution, or any staff member of a Belgian Host Institution. Registration was mandatory.
The presentations are available on the event website and below.

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.
At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
