Published on | 8 months ago

Programmes ERC   ERC  

Principal Investigators with a main European Research Council grant that is ongoing or ended less than 12 months before 1 January of the call year are eligible to participate in an ERC Proof of Concept Grant. The ERC Proof of Concept Grants aim at facilitating exploration of the commercial and social innovation potential of ERC funded research and are therefore available only to PIs whose proposals draw substantially on their ERC funded research. The results of the 2023 Proof of Concept call (2nd cut-off 20 April 2023) were published. In total 66 ERC grant holders received a Proof of Concept grant including five researchers based at a Flemish host institution. More information on the Proof of Concept call results can be found in the press release of ERCEA.

ROOT - Rolling Out OSNMA for the secure synchronization of Telecom networks

The ROOT project obtained funding under Horizon 2020 topic ‘EGNSS applications fostering societal resilience and protecting the environment’. The project, which ran from November 2020 to July 2022,  aimed to demonstrate the benefit of Galileo OSNMA signal to increase the robustness of critical telecom infrastructures.

The Flanders-based company Septentrio contributed substantially to completing this objective together with the other ROOT partners. The results of the project partially close a gap in the security of telecommunication networks dependent on satellite-derived time, with indirect benefits in curbing illegal attempts to disrupt network services.
