Programmes EIC EIEThe European Commission has launched an online stakeholders survey on strengthening the European innovation ecosystem and increasing innovation cohesion.
The aim is to gather views from a wide range of stakeholders, including ministries, regional and local authorities, venture capital companies and business angels, universities and research organisations, science and technology parks, incubators and accelerators, funding agencies, businesses, SMEs, and start-ups, business support organisations including cluster organisations, NGOs, civil society organisations and citizens.
‘Input will feed into ongoing analysis and reflections on the evolution of the European innovation ecosystem, also in view of future programming for Horizon Europe (e.g. European Innovation Ecosystems, European Innovation Council), and Cohesion Policy programmes and the role of smart specialisation approaches. … European Commission services in charge of Research and Innovation and of Cohesion policy will analyse the contributions received and will post on their webpages the outcome of this survey, including a summary report highlighting the key insights gained.’
It takes approximately 20 minutes to complete the survey. The deadline to submit contributions is 15 September 17:00 CET. You can partake in the survey through this link Stakeholders’ survey on Europe’s innovation ecosystem

The Miricle project, ‘Mine Risk Clearance for Europe’, obtained funding under the European Defence Industrial Development programme call ‘Underwater control contributing to resilience at sea’. The main objective of the project was to achieve a European and sovereign capacity in future mine warfare and create a path for the next generation ‘made in Europe’ countermeasure solutions. In order to realise this objective, Miricle addressed various stages: studies, design, prototyping and testing. These stages inter alia included the successful testing of an XL Unmanned Underwater Vehicle, a protototyped mine disposal system and multiple innovative systems to detect buried mines. Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), was one of the five Belgian partners in the consortium. Within the project, VLIZ was able to forward its research on the acoustic imaging of the seabed to spatially map and visualize buried structures and objects - in this case buried mines - in the highest possible detail. VLIZ also led the work on ‘Port and Offshore Testing’, building on the expertise of the institute in the field of marine operations and technology.
