New Chips calls open: Pilot Line on Advanced Photonic Integrated Circuits

The Chips Joint Undertaking (Chips JU) has opened a new set of three interrelated calls for the set-up of a Pilot Line on Advanced Photonic Integrated Circuits: Call for Expression of Interest for the selection of a Hosting Consortium Call for proposals for Set-up, integration and process development, funded under theHorizon Europe Programme Call for proposals for the operational activities of the pilot line, funded under the DigitalEurope Programme The proposed pilot line will serve as a critical infrastructure for bridging the gap between laboratory research and industrial-scale production, facilitating the development of reliable, scalable, and cost-effective Photonic Integrated Circuits solutions. It aims to foster collaboration among research institutions, SMEs, and large corporations across Europe, driving innovation, and accelerating the commercialization of Photonic Integrated Circuits technologies. By doing so, it will not only enhance Europe’s competitive edge in a key technological domain but also contribute significantly to the continent’s economic resilience and strategic autonomy in critical technologies The calls have been opened on 25 July, deadline to submit proposals is 17 September 2024. Information on the interrelated calls, including the conditions to participate, can be found on the dedicated website of the Chips JU.

RUSTICA - Converting organic residues into bio-based fertiliser products

The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’.  RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
