ERC EIC ERC FET EIC Pilot

The European Research Council Proof of Concept Grants (PoC) aim at facilitating exploration of the commercial and social innovation potential of ERC funded research and are therefore available only to ERC Principal Investigators (PIs) whose proposals draw substantially on their ERC funded research.

European Innovation Council (EIC) Transition aims to validate and demonstrate technology in an application relevant environment and develop market readiness. It supports both the maturation and validation of technologies from lab to real environment. EIC Transition proposals must build on the results from

  • EIC Pathfinder projects (including projects funded under EIC pilot Pathfinder, Horizon 2020 FET-Open, FET-Proactive and FET Flagships calls)
  • European Defence Fund (EDF), including the Preparatory Action on Defence Research, research projects, but only for proposals which are exclusively focused on civil applications (including dual use)
  • ERC Proof of Concept projects
  • All projects funded under Horizon 2020 or Horizon Europe calls (for Transition Challenges only)

The webinar will present both funding schemes.

AI4Culture - Empowering Cultural Heritage through Artificial Intelligence

The AI4Culture project, funded under Digital Europe call Data space for cultural heritage (deployment) aims to develop an online capacity building hub for AI technologies in the cultural heritage sector. This hub contributes to the creation of the European common cultural heritage data space, which provides support to the digital transformation of Europe’s cultural sector and fosters the creation and reuse of content in cultural and creative sectors. The Flemish company CrossLang is one of the 12 partners in the project and brings in its year-long expertise in the development of multilingual technology to the transcription and translation of scanned printed and handwritten documents.
