The Commission’s Advanced Digital Skills and Women in Digital flagships will join forces for a combined stakeholder event, providing a key moment to accelerate progress towards the Digital Decade target of 20 million ICT specialists and greater gender balance in tech.
This cooperation reflects the EU’s ambition set out in the Union of Skills and AI Continent Action Plan: to boost Europe’s global leadership and competitiveness through highly skilled talent and strengthen its capacity to lead in advanced digital technologies.
The Summits invite the most relevant stakeholders and leaders from industry, education, training and policy to share the latest state-of-play, data, best practice and promote joint actions to unlock the talent pipeline and lay the foundations of the future advanced digital skills academies.
Registrations are expected to open soon. For more information on the event and the applications for the European Digital Skills Awards (deadline 15 July), please visit the event website.
We offer news and event updates, covering all domains and topics of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe & EDF (and occasionally, for ongoing projects, Horizon 2020).

Health AI Continent Deployment: Best use of technologies
The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
