ProgrammesBuilding on the revised Charter for access to research infrastructures , this new Charter will be specifically aimed at facilitating access of companies. It will make it easier for companies, especially small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs), startups and scaleups, to access Europe’s world-class research and technology infrastructures.
The Charter will help simplify access and contractual conditions of such infrastructures, ranging from advanced laboratories to large scientific instruments, pilot lines, testbeds, and more. As a result, companies will be able to test and validate their innovative solutions under the best conditions and bring them to the market more quickly.
It will also contribute to Europe’s vibrant and accessible ecosystem of research and technology infrastructures, a compelling reason for innovative companies to Choose Europe.
The Charter aims to improve access to infrastructures through six proposed principles:
Stakeholders are invited to provide their views on the design and content of the Charter by 10 December 2025. The final Charter is expected to be presented in 2026.

The EITHOS project, funded under Horizon Europe Cluster 3 call “Online identity theft is countered”, aims to develop a “European Identity Theft Observatory System” (EITHOS). The system will provide easy access to information and intelligence about previous and current identity theft related trends to empower EU citizens, Law Enforcements Agencies (LEAs), and policy makers to further contribute to the prevention, detection, and investigation of crimes related to online identity theft. The Cyber and Data Security Lab (CDSL), part of the Law, Science, Technology and Society (LSTS) Research Group at Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), is one of the 12 partners in the EITHOS consortium, contributing its vast expertise on legal aspects of data protection, cybersecurity and information security law and policy.
