Programmes Digital, Industry & Space EIT

The first Industry 5.0 Award has been launched – an award which recognises EU funded projects that make an outstanding contribution to building a more human-centric, sustainable and resilient European industry.

This could be by developing innovative technologies, industrial or supply chain processes, new business models, and/or by advancing the understanding of human-centricity, sustainability and resilience in industry. 

Eligible projects must have obtained funding from Horizon 2020, Horizon Europe or the European Institute of Innovation and Technology. The official start date of the project must be after 31 August 2018 and the projects results should have clear application in industry.

The deadline for submission is 1 April 2022 – 17:00 CET (Brussels time).

The winner will receive communication support from the European Commission, including the preparation of a promotional video, social media publicity through Commission channels and an article in the Horizon Magazine. Finalists will be invited to the award Ceremony during the annual R&I Days in June 2022 where they will be able to exhibit their projects.

More information can be found on the dedicated website: https://ec.europa.eu/info/research-and-innovation/research-area/industrial-research-and-innovation/industry-50/award_en.

UrbanAIR - Digital Twin for Urban Climate Action

Funded under Horizon Europe (HORIZON-INFRA-2024-TECH-01-03) and running from 2025 to 2028, UrbanAIR develops advanced digital twins that simulate the interactions between urban climate, human behaviour, and policy choices. These models enable cities to explore what-if scenarios, such as new green infrastructure, mobility measures or building designs, and assess their impacts on health, safety and social equity. The project consortium consists of 18 partners from 11 countries. Read more about the project and the contribution of Flemish partner Vito in this testimonial.
