3rd Open Call for Focused Technology Transfer Experiments
SMART4ALL is a H2020 funded project (Grant Agreement No. 872614) that builds capacity amongst European stakeholders via the development of self-sustained, cross-border experiments that transfer knowledge and technology between academia and industry. It targets Customised Low-Energy Computing (CLEC) for CyberPhysical Systems (CPS) and the Internet of Things (IoT) and combines a set of unique characteristics that join together under a common vision different cultures, different policies, different geographical areas and different application domains. The SMART4ALL consortium is led by the University of Peloponnese (Greece) and is composed of 25 partners from Central, South and Eastern Europe.
The third and last Open Call for Focused Technology Transfer Experiments (FTTE) is now open!
FTTEs are short-term (9 months) cross-border experiments between two different entities (industrial or academic) from two different eligible countries. 4 more FTTE proposals that involve technology transfer focusing on Customized Low-Energy Computing (CLEC) for Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and the Internet of Things (IoT) will be funded with up to 80,000 € (lump sum) each.
Areas of application/ Domains:
- Digitized agriculture
- Digitized transport
- Digitized environment
- Digitized everything
One partner (industrial or academic) from one eligible country transfers a particular novel hardware or software technology in the domain of Customized Low-Energy Computing (CLEC) for Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and the Internet of Things (IoT) to a receiving industry partner (SME or Slightly Bigger Company) from a different eligible country. (see the section Guides & Documents).
Who can Apply?
The SMART4ALL cross border Experiments have to be proposed by a Consortium including the following type of applicants:
- Universities and other Academic Institutions.
- SME and Slightly Bigger Companies, as defined in the EU recommendation 2003/361. Slightly Bigger Companies are defined respectively as organisations with a staff headcount below 500 employees and a turnover below €100M.
Proposals can be submitted by any of the aforementioned type of entities, but the participation of, at least, one SME/Slightly Bigger Company is compulsory and should be the lead of the cross-border experiment. All consortia have to have at least one entity from a SEE country.
Prioritised Countries
Additionally, since one of the goals of SMART4ALL is to support the digital transformation in mainly European countries underrepresented in European funding schemes, by means of cross-border experiments, consortia including at least one member from one of the SEE countries (except Greece) or Ukraine will be prioritised:
