The Chips Joint Undertaking (Chips JU) has opened a new set of three interrelated calls for the set-up of a Pilot Line on Advanced Photonic Integrated Circuits:
The proposed pilot line will serve as a critical infrastructure for bridging the gap between laboratory research and industrial-scale production, facilitating the development of reliable, scalable, and cost-effective Photonic Integrated Circuits solutions. It aims to foster collaboration among research institutions, SMEs, and large corporations across Europe, driving innovation, and accelerating the commercialization of Photonic Integrated Circuits technologies. By doing so, it will not only enhance Europe’s competitive edge in a key technological domain but also contribute significantly to the continent’s economic resilience and strategic autonomy in critical technologies
The calls have been opened on 25 July, deadline to submit proposals is 17 September 2024.
Information on the interrelated calls, including the conditions to participate, can be found on the dedicated website of the Chips JU.

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.
