Principal Investigators with a main European Research Council grant that is ongoing or ended less than 12 months before 1 January of the call year are eligible to participate in an ERC Proof of Concept Grant. The ERC Proof of Concept Grants aim at facilitating exploration of the commercial and social innovation potential of ERC funded research and are therefore available only to PIs whose proposals draw substantially on their ERC funded research. The results of the 2023 Proof of Concept call (3rd cut-off deadline 21 September 2023) were published. In total 102 ERC Proof of Concept Grants were announced of which four received by researchers based at a Flemish host institution. In the ERCEA news articles more background on the evaluation results, the results of all three rounds of the 2023 call and several project examples are highlighted.

EITHOS - European Identity Theft Observatory System

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.
