New Chips calls open: Pilot Line on Advanced Photonic Integrated Circuits

Published on | 9 months ago

Programmes Digital, Industry & Space Semiconductors

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.

Autoship - a new and durable way of freight transport

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.

At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
