Programmes RIThe aim of these cascading grants is to enhance the activities of RDA Working Groups through the adoption and further development of Working Group outputs. With a focus on outputs that lead to impact on the Open Science landscape, the cascading grants will ultimately contribute to the interoperability of Open Science solutions within the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC).
The cascading grants call is open not just to RDA Working Groups seeking to facilitate the adoption of their outputs, but also to organisations outside the RDA (for instance, research institutes or private companies) who wish to adopt an RDA output or recommendation. Any entity eligible to receive Horizon Europe funding can apply, barring consortium members of the RDA TIGER project.
The total budget made available with this cascade grants call is €50,000 and it is expected to award between 3 and 5 grants with a funding range between €10,000 – €16,666, depending on applications received.
The deadline for applications is 27 April 2025. The selected projects are expected to be launched in May 2025 and need to be concluded by the end of October 2025.
All information related to the call is available on this section of the RDA Alliance website.
The RDA TIGER project
RDA TIGER is an abbreviation of Research Data Alliance facilitation of Targeted International working Groups for EOSC-related Research solutions. It is a two-year project funded under the Horizon Europe Research Infrastructures work programme, more specifically the destination Enabling an operational, open and fair EOSC ecosystem (INFRAEOSC).
The project supports RDA Working Groups that concretely align, harmonise, and standardise Open Science developments and technologies globally. The services it provides will facilitate and support coherent and consistent working group definitions and increase the impact of the key European initiatives on the global level.
The project will directly contribute to the EOSC Partnership by supporting (via the Working Groups) the international engagement and alignment of policies, technologies, methodologies, practices and other outputs of EOSC-related and other European Open Science developments. More information about the RDA TIGER project can be found here.

Digital, Industry & Space AI Continent Deployment: Best use of technologies
The Openverse project hosted last week a high-impact workshop, “National Initiatives and the European Partnership on Virtual Worlds,” aligning stakeholders around the European Commission’s Virtual Worlds strategy. The initiative, rooted in the July 2023 Communication on Web 4.0 and Virtual Worlds, aims to build sustainable, inclus... read more
Founded in 1999, Luciad serves clients in Europe, Asia and the Americas. Though it recently was acquired by Hexagon Geospatial, they kept an agile SME mindset. Thousands of end users work directly with Luciad’s geospatial applications, and major systems integrators (think Airbus Defense and Space, Lufthansa Systems, NATO, Thales…) incorporate its software in their own products.
NCP Flanders went to Leuven to interview Frederic Houbie, the Research Projects Manager at Luciad, about how he sees Horizon 2020. Luciad is a partner in the MARISA project, which is a collaborative RIA project submitted to an ICT call topic.
