Programmes Digital Europe AI Continent Deployment: Best use of technologiesThe European Commission's Apply AI Strategy explains how the EU moves from developing AI to using it at scale in real economic sectors and public administrations. It is Europe's central sectoral AI strategy. It addresses the industrial and public application of AI and, together with AI in Science, forms the strategic core of the EU AI system under the umbrella of the AI Continent Action Plan. Unlike earlier EU AI initiatives (that focused mainly on research and pilot projects), the strategy places strong emphasis on large-scale deployment, sector ownership and operational use of AI solutions. It focuses on sectoral flagships, AI infrastructures, data spaces, regulatory support, and a European AI-first decision-making logic.
Knowledge of underlying EU policies and legislations is a key element in Digital Europe proposals as they play an important role in the “relevance” evaluation criterion. This Policy Briefing is one of several briefings prepared by DEP4ALL, the NCP Network for the Digital Europe programme, to support applicants with summaries of relevant EU initiatives.

The UNCHAIN project, ‘urban logistics and planning: anticipating urban freight generation and demand including digitalisation of urban freight’ obtained funding from the Horizon Europe’s Mobility Cluster. The project focuses on breaking down data silos and promoting public-private data exchange across a unified European mobility data space, enabling more informed decisions and greater efficiency. The City of Mechelen is a partner in the project and takes on the role of ‘follower city’: it will work alongside the primary demonstration sites (in Madrid, Berlin and Florence) to maximize the geographical coverage and replicability of solutions across Europe. Mechelen aims to test 2 concrete solutions in the UNCHAIN project, with the aim to help addressing its current and future challenges in urban freight distribution.
