Open calls on quantum-chip technology

Published on | 1 year ago

Programmes Digital, Industry & Space Semiconductors

The Chips Joint Undertaking (Chips JU) has opened calls to support semiconductor research and innovation initiatives. This is the first call in quantum technologies with the aim to step up investment in frontier technologies, in particular quantum chips for computing and sensing.

The EU funding for this call of €65 million is expected to be matched by the participating states of the Chips JU. This is part of the €200 million EU investment in quantum chips envisaged under the Chips JU over the next three years.
The call will select projects for the development and manufacturing of quantum technologies to enhance innovation in Europe and pave the way for establishing a manufacturing supply chain for quantum chips in Europe.
Real-world applications include solving complex optimisation problems in logistics and supply chain management, accelerating drug discovery through molecular simulations, enhancing cybersecurity with advanced encryption methods, and improving artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms.

More detailed information about the calls and the application process:

The deadline to submit proposals for these calls is 21 January 2025 (17.00 CET).

INSPIRE - Centre of Excellence on inclusive gender equality in R&I

Funded by Horizon Europe, under call topic HORIZON-WIDERA-2021-ERA-01-80, INSPIRE is Europe's Centre of Excellence on inclusive gender equality in research and innovation. It relies on four Knowledge and Support Hubs to create knowledge in the areas of sustaining change, widening participation, intersectionality and innovation. Moreover, it supports stakeholders in their journey to become more inclusive through 12 Communities of Practice. In this way, INSPIRE aims to develop both cutting-edge knowledge and innovative strategies for gender equality in the European Research Area. INSPIRE brings together 14 partners. The Belgian partner in this project is UHasselt.
