Programmes Horizon Europe Digital Europe Defence

The European Commisson has adopted two strategies with the aim of driving adoption in key industries and putting Europe at the forefront of AI-driven science.

Apply AI Strategy

The Apply AI Strategy sets out how to speed up the use of AI in Europe's key industries and the public sector. It aims to make use of AI's transformative potential by promoting the adoption of AI across strategic and public sectors including healthcare, pharmaceuticals, energy, mobility, manufacturing, construction, agri-food, defence, communications and culture. It will also support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with their specific needs and help industries integrate AI into their operations.

Concrete measures include establishing AI-powered advanced screening centres for healthcare and supporting the development of frontier models and agentic AI tailored to sectors such as manufacturing, environment and pharmaceuticals.

AI in Science Strategy

Alongside Apply AI, the AI in Science Strategy positions the EU as a hub for AI-driven scientific innovation. At its centre is RAISE - the Resource for AI Science in Europe, a virtual European institute to pool and coordinate AI resources for developing AI and applying it in science. It aims to advance the responsible and strategic integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies into the European research and innovation landscape by

  • supporting the uptake of AI across all disciplines
  • accelerating discoveries and breakthroughs
  • addressing major societal challenges
  • boosting innovation, job and growth

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.
