Find out what's happening in the area of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe and Horizon 2020
AI is an dynamic research field, with an extreme close linking between scientific research and business driven innovations. This means that there exist different ecosystems that focus on specific aspects and application domains. Sometimes it can be difficult to find your way in this web.
The European Commission funds Centres of Excellence to unite in networks in order to group experience and foster sharing and cooperation. No matter whether you are at forefront of AI developments or just getting started (with a clear objective on where you want to arrive), you can use these ecosystems. It's the right time for a strong #AImadeinEU future.
The networks offer collaborative research opportunities, knowledge exchange, and funding support for companies and researchers. They provide access to valuable resources such as data, infrastructure, and networking opportunities, fostering innovation and accelerating the development and deployment of AI applications.
Collaborative Research: Networks of centres of excellence bring together multiple research institutions, academia, and industry partners to collaborate on AI-related projects. This collaboration enables companies and researchers to access a diverse range of expertise, resources, and knowledge, which promotes innovation and advances AI technologies.
Knowledge Exchange and Training: These networks facilitate the exchange of knowledge among various stakeholders, including researchers and industry professionals. Workshops, seminars, conferences, and training programmes are organised to keep companies and researchers updated on the latest advancements in AI, acquire new skills, and enhance their understanding of cutting-edge techniques and methodologies.
Funding and Support: Networks of excellence often provide financial support in the form of grants, fellowships, or funding opportunities for companies and researchers involved in AI projects. These resources help to support research activities, facilitate the development of prototypes or proof-of-concept models, and drive efforts towards commercialisation.
Access to Data and Infrastructure: Joining these networks can grant access to extensive datasets, high-performance computing infrastructure, and AI-specific tools and platforms. This access allows companies and researchers to work with large-scale data, conduct complex analyses, and experiment with AI algorithms, ultimately accelerating the development and deployment of AI applications.
Networking and Collaboration Opportunities: Being part of a network of excellence provides valuable networking opportunities for companies and researchers. Collaborating with other institutions, industry partners, and experts in the field opens doors for potential partnerships, joint ventures, and avenues for commercialisation. It also fosters a supportive ecosystem where ideas can be shared, validated, and refined.
Please note that the specific details and benefits of networks of centres of excellence in the field of AI may vary depending on the organisation, country, or region. It is recommended to refer to the mentioned website or other authoritative sources for the most up-to-date and accurate information on this topic. Whichs brings us to...
As you will discover, there is sometimes overlap in the goals and coverage of some of the networks. Don't be scared to contact multiple of them to find which one covers your needs best.
Technically not a Centre of Excellence, but quite related. The AI-on-Demand Platform (AIoD) is a community-driven channel designed to empower European research and innovation in Artificial Intelligence (AI), while ensuring the European seal of quality, trustworthiness and explainability.
AIoD facilitates knowledge sharing, research experimentation and development of state-of-the art solutions and technologies related with AI and AI-based robotics. Depending on your background, start reading their for researchers, for technology providers, for DIHs, or for SMEs introduction pages.
