Europe's Rail is the partnership within Horizon Europe that wants to stimulate research and innovation in the railway sector, more in particular in areas such as automated train operations, regional rail services and green freight. They publish calls for proposals on a regular basis where all interested parties can submit their ideas. 

To present their next series of calls, they will hold an online info day on the 10th of October and you can expect to learn more about:

  • this year’s destinations
  • guidance on the legal and financial aspects of proposal submission.
  • specific elements of the calls during a live Q&A session with EU-Rail experts

Afterwards there will be an online matchmaking session which is open to everyone. More information can be found on this website

Testimonial

Autoship - a new and durable way of freight transport

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.
