EIC Accelerator Challenge: Novel technologies for resilient agriculture
The proposals should include groundbreaking innovations that will lead to a radical transformation beyond the state-of-the-art of the current fertilisation, crop protection, irrigation and soil management practices. From a food system point of view, they will take into account strategies for climate adaptation, and a life cycle approach. Consideration should be also given to possible effects of such innovations on the food supply chain. From an environment point of view it is expected they will help to ensure healthier and richer biodiversity and more resilient ecosystems.
deadline: 22 March 2023
----------------

Scientific exploitation of space data
Exploitation of all acquired and available data provided by space missions in their operative, post-operative or data exploitation phase ensuring complementarity with activities already supported by ESA or national agencies during development phases. Projects may rely on data available through Copernicus DIAS (Data and Information Access Services), ESA Space Science Archives when possible or other means (e.g. instrumentation teams). Activities shall add scientific value through analysis of the data, leading to scientific publications and higher-level data products, tools and methods. When possible, enhanced data products should be suitable for feeding back into the ESA Space Science archives. Resulting analyses should help preparing future European and international missions.
deadline: 28 March 2023
----------------

Future Space Ecosystem and Enabling Technologies
Enable the industrialisation and new services in space by intelligent solutions and competitive concepts, exploiting synergies with terrestrial sectors and cultivating an “AppStore”, Open-Architecture and Standardisation mentality towards quickly developed, sustainable, highly automated, flexible and economically viable space systems and infrastructure.
Enabling technologies shall improve space systems and satellites’ flexibility and cost-efficiency, increase sustainability and accessibility, introduce mass-customisation and cooperative design as well as simplify and optimise operations.
deadline: 28 March 2023
----------------

eXtended Reality for Industry 5.0 (IA)
Projects are expected to contribute to the following outcomes:
•    Develop “XR made in Europe”, contributing to technological sovereignty.
•    Contribute to develop virtual worlds European platforms.
•    Support the use of XR technologies for a sustainable, human-centric and resilient European industry.
deadline: 29 March 2023
----------------

Next Generation eXtended Reality (RIA)
Projects are expected to contribute to the following outcomes:
•    Next generation of XR devices and applications, which are human-centred, and provide intuitive and realistic user experiences, by exploiting cross fertilisation between technologies such as 5G/6G, IoT, data, artificial intelligence, edge and cloud computing, and microelectronics but also across domains of use such as (but not limited to education, manufacturing, health, cultural heritage, media and security).
•    More realistic, more affordable and gender-neutral devices and applications, developed by European companies, respecting European values of ethics, privacy, security and safety, aiming at technological sovereignty and resilience.
deadline: 29 March 2023
----------------

Next Generation Internet International Collaboration - USA (RIA)
Proposals should organise open calls for third party projects involving EU teams together with NSF-funded US teams on emerging topics for the EU Next Generation Internet and corresponding US programmes. The thematic focus should be on trust and privacy enhancing technologies, data sharing and portability, sustainable and climate-friendly internet, electronic identities, internet architecture renovation and decentralised technologies. The third party projects should focus on research leading to advanced technology development, and may include joint demonstrators and joint contributions to standards.
deadline: 29 March 2023
----------------

Cognitive Computing Continuum: Intelligence and automation for more efficient data processing (AI, data and robotics partnership) (RIA)
Focus should be on autonomous and AI-enabled management schemes and data processing methods that enable this transition to a compute continuum with strong capacities at the edge and fog/IoT edge in an energy efficient and trustworthy manner. Intelligent compute, data and code orchestration mechanisms need to be integrated, which allow efficient value extraction from the huge volumes of generated data at the edge of the network and which support unprecedented levels of resource dynamicity and scalability across the compute continuum.
deadline: 29 March 2023
----------------

EU-Japan Partnership
Proposals should address all the identified priority domains, with activities in HPC applications such as co-development of applications in biomedical, material science, seismic/tsunami and/or weather and climate modelling, performance measuring, test and optimisation for different architectures; promoting the exchange of researchers and engineers between Japan and the EU, and elaborating a roadmap for future actions to enhance cooperation. Proposals should clearly demonstrate a clear link with the existing European HPC Centres of Excellence supported in the identified priority domains. 
deadline: 04 April 2023
----------------

The Silver Deal - Person-centred health and care in European regions
The applicants should ensure that the developed solutions, technologies and adoption policies are driven by the needs of citizens and patients of old age and ensure their involvement. Co-creation, co-design with end-users and particular consideration of the diversity of the needs, mental and physical abilities, living and socio-economic conditions as well as life-situations of older people are required, including provision of training to citizens, patients, formal and informal carers.
deadline: 13 April 2023
----------------

Reliable Services and Smart Security
The target outcomes qualify the needed level of reliability, trust and resilience that applies to a critical infrastructure like 6G based on a globally connected continuum of heterogeneous environments supported by the convergence of networks and IT systems to enable new future digital services.
deadline: 25 April 2023
----------------

Positive clean energy district (PED) digital twins – from modelling to creating climate neutral Cities
Proposals are expected to develop a digital twin that goes beyond the virtual representation of the built environment, by integrating a comprehensive modelling layer of the local energy systems[1] as well as mobility and transport solutions in the project defined district boundaries. The digital twin should support scenario analysis with different boundary conditions to help define the optimal solution matrix. It should draw on existing components and use open standards, technical specifications and open source software where possible.
deadline: 27 April 2023

International and other EU Programmes

Funding Opportunities PRIMA
Our funding calls for projects in the thematic areas of water management, farming systems, agri-food value chain, and nexus. We are looking for projects that focus on sustainable water management practices, developing resilient and sustainable farming systems, promoting the growth of the agri-food value chain and addressing the challenges of the water-energy-food nexus.
deadline: 22 March 2023
----------------

FIA _ Startup Challenge 3rd edition
The categories in 2023 FIA Region I Start-up Challenge reflect the vast expansion of mobility Clubs over the last decades: car; mobility; assistance; road safety.
Nowadays mobility Clubs’ purview reaches not only cars, but also mobility at large, even wider assistance services that simplify and improve their members’ lives. And, as always, road safety plays a special role.
