Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions – Lessons Learnt from the implementation of European Industrial Doctorates in Horizon 2020 – Report from the Cluster Event with European Industrial Doctorates (10 November 2022)

Published on | 11 months ago

Programmes MSCA   MSCA  

This is a report from the Cluster Event with Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Innovative Training Networks (ITN) European Industrial Doctorates (EID). On 10 November 2022, the European Commission European Research Executive Agency (REA) organised a cluster event gathering over 160 actors from 75 MSCA ITN EID projects funded under Horizon 2020. The participants represented both the academic and non-academic sectors, which is essential for this mode of MSCA ITN projects.

A key goal of the meeting was to document successes, good practices and lessons learnt, as well as provide recommendations to help improve and enhance the efficiency and impact of the programme for fellows, industry and academia in the future, thus contributing more effectively to the corresponding EU priorities. These conclusions are also applicable to the MSCA Doctoral Networks (DN) Industrial Doctorates (ID) programme in Horizon Europe.

Miricle - Mine Risk Clearance for Europe

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.
