Priorities and funded actions

Objectives

  • To establish a multi-stakeholder data governance, an inventory of existing data platforms for manufacturing and a blueprint for manufacturing-specific building blocks which could contribute to the long-term convergence of existing and new data-related initiatives in manufacturing by making use of the Data Space technical infrastructure;
  • To support the deployment of these data spaces for manufacturing, and propose sustainable business models and incentives schemes to motivate participants to share data.

Priorities 

  • Priority 1: Contribute to the definition of the technical infrastructure for data sharing and re-use within the manufacturing sector and across relevant sectors;
  • Priority 2: Bring together existing national, regional and local data ecosystems, and relevant stakeholders, to join efforts and identify common principles for sharing industrial data and re-using large pools of data at the EU level;
  • Priority 3: Enable the establishment of a data governance mechanism, with a detailed roadmap on how embryonic data spaces for manufacturing should progressively accelerate into a pan-European manufacturing data space and reach out to a very large user base, in particular SMEs.

Among financed actions

  • Developing a multi-stakeholder data governance scheme, bringing together national, regional and local data ecosystem stakeholders, to jointly agree on the data interoperability requirements and interfaces, and data federation models. The scheme will also review options in an existing or new governance body to ensure openness, conformity and evolution of these, in agreement with the private sector;
  • Delivering sustainable business models for the data spaces, which incentivise data sharing and reuse of the private sector, such as data brokerage, data valuation, and service bundling and pricing;
  • Elaborating an inventory of existing data platforms for manufacturing and a blueprint for manufacturing specific building blocks which could contribute to the long-term convergence of existing and new data-related initiatives in manufacturing by making use of the Data Space technical infrastructure;
  • Bringing an agreed set of priority datasets and data themes, including realtime data into conformity with the new blueprint standards and principles.

Additional information

  • This call for proposals is an open call for proposals.
  • Initial duration of the action: between 12 and 24 months.

Eligibility 

  • Be legal entities (public or private bodies);
  • A consortium composed of at least 3 independant entities, established in at least 3 different eligible countries must be constituted.
Financement
  • Total amount of the call: 140 million euro
  • Total amount for this topic: 1 million euro
  • Amount of the grant: 1 million euro
  • Co-funding rate: up to 100% of the total eligible costs
