ProgrammesThe CEF2 Digital programme will grant funds for the rapid deployment and take up of 5G for smart communities and innovative applications.
In healthcare, 5G-connected hospitals or ambulances can help monitor patients, make early diagnostics, and enable personalised medical advice and treatment.
In education, 5G in underserved areas will allow students to take part in classes from remote locations with virtual and augmented reality, allowing for increased interaction and making lessons more efficient and fun. The technology has the potential of spreading online learning, which has become more and more common during the pandemic.
The Commission launched a call as part of CEF Digital in January 2022. It will select projects that constitute examples of concrete 5G use cases and that have the potential of sparking incentive for future 5G-based application developments in different sectors.
The details of the new call topic are expected to appear within a week or so. You can already check some of the call topics of the first wave for inspiration.
More information will be given during the matchmaking event on Sep 20.
We offer news and event updates, covering all domains and topics of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe & EDF (and occasionally, for ongoing projects, Horizon 2020).

The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’. RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
