Health EIT AI Continent Deployment: Best use of technologies

EIT Health’s Innovation Uptake Call focuses on mature digital, data-driven and AI-powered solutions and seeks to support the last steps towards commercialisation.

Applicants must apply as a consortium of at least two independent legal entities from different countries. The consortium must include partners from at least two sides of the Knowledge Triangle: industry, research and education. Projects must be led by a commercialising entity, either an SME or another industry player, responsible for bringing the solution to market. 

The maximum funding per project is €650,000 (total budget €5,2 million) and the grant may cover up to 50% of total project costs, so co-funding is required. Funded activities may include commercialisation pilots in real-world healthcare settings, usability testing and market adaptation, go-to-market strategy, business model validation and health economics analysis. 

The call was opened on 24 June 2026 and will close on 16 September 2026. An information session is scheduled for 15 July 2026 from 12:30 to 13:30 CET, and an open Q&A session for 1 September 2026 at 11:00 CET. More information is available on the website of the call.

Background: The European institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) stands at the crossroad of business creation, innovation and education. It consists of ten knowledge and innovation communities. The overall objective is to transform promising innovations into succesful companies.

MareGraph - Towards an Interoperable Marine Knowledge Graph

The MareGraph project, ‘Towards an Interoperable Marine Knowledge Graph’, obtained funding under the Digital Europe topic ‘OPEN-AI – Public Sector Open Data for AI and Open Data Platform’. The project will increase the semantic, technical, and legal interoperability of three selected high-valued datasets (HVDs) all maintained by the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), which is one of the four partners of the project. This will allow the onboarding of essential marine datasets in the Common European Data Spaces. As such MareGraph will provide a structural component in the digital transition of the marine landscape. The numerous impacts of the project will benefit our seas globally in old and new ways to come.
