Communication technologies like 5G and 6G are fundamental aspects for the digital transformation of Europe. Plenty of funding opportunities will therefore be present in Horizon Europe. Quite some of the coordination of these topics will happen by the European Partnership for Smart Networks and Services.
This Smart Networks and Services partnership aims to strengthen Europe’s scientific and industrial leadership. It will help to
Quite some existing organisations have put their shoulders under this initiative (that will launch as an Institutionalized Partnership - Art185/7): 5G-IA, Networld2020, AIOTI, Cispe.cloud, NESSI...
The priorities of the partnership are stated in the Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda 2021-27: "smart networks in het context of NGI". The identified key areas for the EU R&I community that are relevant for the future of communications technology are the following:
The majority of funding opportunities for 5G and 6G is expected to be published directly by the Work Programme of the European Partnership for Smart Networks and Services. However, in the draft WP of cluster 4, 5G and 6G are explicitly mentioned in the following topics:
It is always interesting to check out which projects were funded in the past years on the topics related to 4G and 5G. Attached to this article, you can find an overview document that our Swiss colleagues (euresearch) have put together and were so kind to share.

The UNCHAIN project, ‘urban logistics and planning: anticipating urban freight generation and demand including digitalisation of urban freight’ obtained funding from the Horizon Europe’s Mobility Cluster. The project focuses on breaking down data silos and promoting public-private data exchange across a unified European mobility data space, enabling more informed decisions and greater efficiency. The City of Mechelen is a partner in the project and takes on the role of ‘follower city’: it will work alongside the primary demonstration sites (in Madrid, Berlin and Florence) to maximize the geographical coverage and replicability of solutions across Europe. Mechelen aims to test 2 concrete solutions in the UNCHAIN project, with the aim to help addressing its current and future challenges in urban freight distribution.
