This partnership is new and was officially launched on 9 October 2025. It will increase sustainable agriculture in the EU and improve policy monitoring and implementation by using digital and data technologies. The partnership will also generate EU-wide data sets and information through combining geospatial and Earth observation datasets for the agricultural sector.
It is set to operate for at least seven years with a planned budget of €300 million, 30% co-funded by the EU.
You can find the overview of the envisaged Research and Innovation topics in the Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda which dates back to 2023.

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.
