Focuses on digital twins for urban decision-making processes. Collaboration between 14 countries and numerous cities.
EUROPEUM-EDIC aims to continue the activities of the European Blockchain Partnership to expand and deploy the European Blockchain Services Infrastructure (EBSI) network and its use cases, focusing on enhancing public services for EU citizens and organisations. It will as well foster the EU-wide cross-border verification solutions and facilitate the cooperation between Member States on blockchain and Web3 technology.
Improves framework conditions for startup ecosystems across Europe. Provides quality data and insights for policymakers.
Open research infrastructure that gathers data, tools and computing facilities for brain-related research, built with interoperability at the core.
The future EDIC aims to ensure the sustainable operation of the European Genomic Data Infrastructure to provide secure access to genomic datasets and linked health data.
The future EDIC aims to contribute to the Cancer Image Europe platform which aims to link and make available large amounts of cancer image data and linked clinical information to clinicians, researchers and innovators.
Aims to boost the deployment of data- and AI-driven innovations by supporting cross-border use cases (e.g. freight visibility in multimodal logistics chains, traffic management); and bringing together key actors to set a basis for sustainable digital infrastructure for the sector.
The future EDIC will be a one-stop shop for e.g. open-source communities, developers, and adopters, promote the use of open-source digital solutions, and accelerate the roll-out and implementation of joint projects, such the European digital workplace.
The future EDIC is expected to reduce administrative burdens for the sector and improve data availability and sharing. A central element will be the implementation of a digital Farm ID in line with the EU Digital Identity Wallet / eID system, and to harness the power of AI.
The CSC-EDIC intends to address cybersecurity skills gap in Member States, including through proactive actions to promote the upskilling and reskilling of professionals, with a particular emphasis on the needs of Small and Medium Size Enterprises (SMEs) and public administrations in the area of cybersecurity.
The IMPACTS-EDIC aims to connect public administrations to provide advanced public services across Europe in the context of the Interoperable Europe Act.
