This event is jointly organised by the Mission of Switzerland to the EU, the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) and SwissCore: “In light of the discussions towards the next EU framework programme for research and innovation (FP10) and the second European Research Area (ERA) Policy Agenda 2025-2027, this event explores how Research Infrastructures (RIs) can play a decisive role in advancing Europe’s competitiveness and addressing the acute skills gap in the age of AI. Examples of leading European research and competence centres that are shaping the future of science will be presented: the PSI, part of the ETH domain in Switzerland, offering a unique array of large research infrastructures and highly competitive research activities in basic and applied sciences, and the EMBL, Europe’s only international life sciences research organisation and member of the European Intergovernmental Research Organisation Forum (EIROForum). In the panel the following questions will be addressed:

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.
