Programmes Digital Europe AI Continent Deployment: Best use of technologiesDigital Europe project DS4SSCC-DEP (Data Space for Smart and Sustainable Cities and Communities) has opened its first round of cascade funding calls:
There will be three rounds of open calls occurring every three months:
The aim of these Calls for Pilots is to validate an EU-wide cross-sectorial data space in practice and to advance its development and implementation to support policy priorities of cities and communities within the European Union, including the green-digital transformation based on secure and sovereign data infrastructure.
The pilot call is specifically designed for local public administrations in the EU and Digital Europe Programme (DEP) Associated countries and partners working with them (e.g., companies, civil society organisations, academia). The consortia must be capable of executing a cross-sectorial and cross-border pilot activity, and co-finance at least 50% of the pilot activity.
All relevant information on the background, objectives and scope of this call, as well as the conditions of participation, the available budget and the application templates can be found on the dedicated website of this call.
We offer news and event updates, covering all domains and topics of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe & EDF (and occasionally, for ongoing projects, Horizon 2020).

AI Continent Deployment: Best use of technologies
The European Commission has published the recording and presentations from its 18 December 2025 info session on the call topics Data Space for Manufacturing (DIGITAL-2026-DSM-AI-09-DS-MANUFACTUR-STEP) and European Digital Media Observatory hubs (DIGITAL-2026-BESTUSE-TECH-EDMO-09-HUBS). The slides and recording are available on ... read more
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.
