NGIatlantic.eu Proposers Webinar
The purpose of NGIatlantic.eu project is to fund open calls for EU innovators to carry out NGI related experiments with a US team on experimental platforms (either EU or US experimental platforms, or both). Through its lifetime between January 2020 and June 2022, 2.8M-euro will be available to fund 5 open calls between January 2020 and June 2022. The first open call is currently running between April 1 and May 29, 2020.
On 14th May 2020 NGIatlantic.eu will give interested applicants the possibility to pitch their ideas during this 45-minute online workshop. The event will provide an excellent opportunity to present and discuss around the key enabling technologies in the three NGI topics at the core of the first NGIatlantic.eu Open Call and how the EU and US experimental platforms can best represent the ideal playground to push transatlantic research and innovation in the NGI to the next level.
The event will serve as a unique networking opportunity for NGI enthusiasts and professionals who are looking for partners to meet and apply to NGIatlantic.eu's open call funding opportunities.
Maximise your funding chances: Join the interactive session to shape up your NGI experiment and to network with peers to present an EU – US proposal to the open calls.
