The Belgian Royal Higher Institute for Defence and US Army DEVCOM and US Office of Naval Research – Global are inviting you to this second bilateral workshop on defence research. The aim of the event is to familiarize the Belgian Research community with available funding mechanisms and to identify and share new, crazy and potentially disruptive ideas (as opposed to discussing past successes).
The “Forging the future – BE-US joint effort in science for a safer world” workshop will be the second edition of this event introducing Belgian research and technology community to representatives from the Belgium Ministry of Defence (MoD) and the United States of America – Department of Defence (DoD). This meeting will provide academic institutions, research institutions, industries (big and small cap) and government representatives with the opportunity to discuss emerging research and technologies across a broad range of topic areas with the goal of building collaboration across the research community and with government agencies.
The workshop programme will be built around five topical areas where researchers will be presenting 10-minutes “lightning” talks describing their blue sky, crazy ideas.
Topic areas: quantum, biotechnologie, AI, autonomy, hypersonics material sciences.
This event will also offer the occasion for networking opportunities and the possibility of bilateral talks with BEL Defence and/or US Defence funding authorities.
We offer news and event updates, covering all domains and topics of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe & EDF (and occasionally, for ongoing projects, Horizon 2020).

The Stargate project obtained funding under the special Green Deal call of Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic of “green ports and airports”. It received the maximum score of the evaluators and was selected out of more than 40 projects. Stargate’s purpose is to prove that sustainable aviation is possible and happening. It focuses on the further decarbonization of the aviation industry, the improvement of local environmental quality and the stimulation of the modal split. Together with a consortium of 21 European partners with a diverse and rich expertise (airports, community partners, knowledge institutions, consultants, local governments, …), Brussels Airports takes the lead as lighthouse airport to develop and implement innovative solutions. Results that prove successful can be deployed at the fellow airports (Toulouse, Budapest, Athens). Over the course of the coming five years, the consortium will exchange knowledge to investigate and realize more than 30 concrete projects.
