With a budget of 1 billion euro for the programming period 2014-2020, the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) programme supports physical and digital infrastructures in the sectors of transport, telecommunications and energy. 

Today, the European Commission launched the second CEF Telecom call of 2019, with €25 million available to help European public administrations and businesses connect to pan-European digital platforms and ensure that the services provided are interoperable across borders. The call focuses on six areas: cybersecurity (€10 million), eHealth (€5 million), eProcurement (€1 million), European e-Justice (€3 million), public Open Data (€5 million), and the new European Platform on Digital Skills (€1 million).
