Background: The European Institute for innovation and technology (EIT) aims to bridge the gap between innovation and commercialisation. It does so by connecting the three pillars of the knowledge triangle (innovation, business creation and education) through the establishment of Knowledge and Innovation Communities (KICs). Currently, there are 9 different KICs, each forming a network of companies, universities, research centres and other organizations. These communities regularly launch calls for proposals to identify high-potential companies. EIT Health is one of these KICs .

Luciad - Geospatial software for mission-critical operations

Founded in 1999, Luciad serves clients in Europe, Asia and the Americas. Though it recently was acquired by Hexagon Geospatial, they kept an agile SME mindset. Thousands of end users work directly with Luciad’s geospatial applications, and major systems integrators (think Airbus Defense and Space, Lufthansa Systems, NATO, Thales…) incorporate its software in their own products.

NCP Flanders went to Leuven to interview Frederic Houbie, the Research Projects Manager at Luciad, about how he sees Horizon 2020. Luciad is a partner in the MARISA project, which is a collaborative RIA project submitted to an ICT call topic
