Priorities and funded actions

Objectives

  • To reinforce the EU’s core Artificial Intelligence (AI), Cloud to Edge Computing and Data capacities as a crucial driver for the digital transformation of the public and private sectors
  • To support the overall monitoring, medium-term exploitation, sustainability and economic viability of the developped and first industrially deployed advanced cloud-to-edge solutions associated with the pre-notified Important Project of Common European Interest on Next Generation Cloud Infrastructure and Services (IPCEI-CIS) via the set-up of a Cloud IPCEI Exploitation Office (Topic 1)
  • To develop a commercially viable highly secure cloud-based collaborative platform for the management of sensitive multi-country industrial initiatives in the aeronautics and security sector, including civil security (Topic 2)
  • To establish and deploy a pan-European federated infrastructure for Intensive Care Units’ (ICU) data combined with governance mechanisms allowing secure cross-border access and use of ICU datasets, related tools and resources (Topic 3)
  • To establish and launch a European reference genome database of genetic variation obtained by whole genome sequencing (Topic 4)
  • To support the sectorial Testing and Experimentation Facilities (TEFs) created under the WP 2021-2022 (Health, Manufacturing, Agri-Food, Smart Cities and Communities) and the future new ones to be created under the Digital Europe Programme (Topic 5)
  • To support full digitalisation processes, efficiency, and sustainability gains in many domains (Topic 6)

Among financed actions

  • Monitoring and reporting to the European Commission
  • Develop joint approaches to ensure that project results stemming from the IPCEI-CIS (such as open-source software technologies) will be maintained and regularly updated and that economic viability of the solutions will happen
  • Propose a governance strategy to guarantee the self-functioning of the IPCEI integrated project
  • Provide the necessary measures to connect different cloud service offerings with different security and encryption mechanisms
