ProgrammesThe Commission launched a call for expression of interest to join the new Industry-Academia Network under the European Cyber Skills Academy.
This network will strengthen the links between industry and academia to boost cybersecurity skills, ensuring the European cyber workforce is adequately equipped to meet growing demands in the sector.
Members of the network will include stakeholders of the Cybersecurity Skills Academy and higher education institutions, European University Alliances, and vocational education and training (VET) providers. They will focus on aligning the needs of the cybersecurity job market with academic and training offerings that suit current and emerging needs of the workforce. Concrete partnerships are expected to emerge, encompassing joint curricula, mentorship programmes, apprenticeships, and other initiatives.
The call will remain open on a permanent basis, however, stakeholders wishing to be part of the network's launch group should apply by 5 January 2025.

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.
At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
