Programmes Security Digital, Industry & Space Digital EuropeIn Digital Europe, knowledge of the underlying EU policies and legislations is a key element when drafting a proposal, as they play an important role in the “relevance” evaluation criterion.
Also for Horizon Europe Cluster 3 (Cybersecurity) and Cluster 4 (Digital), this knowledge can be handy for applicants.
To support applicants with summaries of relevant EU initiatives, DEP4ALL (the NCP Network for the Digital Europe programme) has put together a number of Policy Briefings. These can be found on the Digital Europe Introduction page of the NCP Flanders website.
Briefings on the following topics are currently available:
Please not that this list is not exhaustive. Always consult the call information for the specific call topic to see which policies and initiatives have to be taken into account.

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.
