Programmes Deployment: Best use of technologiesThe European Blockchain Sandbox has opened its third round of calls for innovative use cases involving Distributed Ledger Technologies. Public entities and private sector companies in the European Economic Area, including start up and scale-ups, can now apply for the third cohort of the European Blockchain Sandbox with innovative use case projects.
The Sandbox was launched by the European Commission in 2023 to provide a confidential platform for innovative blockchain use cases involving Distributed Ledger Technologies. It gives projects the chance to engage in discussions with regulators and authorities at both national and EU level. It aims to help projects understand novel regulation issues, increase legal certainty and contribute to the development of best practices.
The European Blockchain Sandbox supports 20 projects annually over a three year period, and is open to use cases across the EU/EEA based on any blockchain infrastructure. Blockchain use cases will be selected based on a number of criteria, including the maturity of their business case and their legal/regulatory relevance and contribution to the EU’s wider policy priorities.
Deadline for applications is 31 January 2025.

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.
