Automated driving is a disruptive technology which opens the door to future multi-billion markets providing business opportunities to value chains in automotive and semiconductor industry.The European industry has leading competitive strength in the development and manufacturing of highly reliable electro-mechanical systems. In order to preserve this capability Europe needs to setup European standards for high level control such as real-time computing or big data processing. In order to respond on the global challenge AutoDrive has gathered Europe’s leading semiconductor companies, suppliers, OEMs, and research institutes committed to create a pan-European eco-system, which has the critical mass to initiate standards and provides the components and subsystems for automated driving. Currently, even the most sophisticated vehicle automation technology on the road is not able to surpass human driving capabilities – especially considering context awareness in any situation. Moreover, there is no common agreement on quantifiable dependability measures which hardware and embedded software have to achieve to allow safe automated driving for SAE Levels 3-5. AutoDrive aims for the design of (i) fail-aware (self-diagnostics), (ii) fail-safe, (iii) fail-operational (HW and SW redundancy) electronic components and systems architecture that enable the introduction of automated driving in all car categories. AutoDrive results will significantly contribute to safer and more efficient mobility. It will raise end-user acceptance and comfort by supporting drivers in highly challenging situations (active safety) as well as in regular driving situations. Combining both will reduce the number of road fatalities especially in rural scenarios and under adverse weather conditions. AutoDrive will contribute to Europe’s Vision Zero and to improved efficiency. This will sustain Leadership and even grow the market position of all AutoDrive partners.

This project is an attempt to develop an effective bioactive wound dressing for the treatment of chronic non-healing wounds that until now depict a major challenge and financial burden to healthcare providers. We propose a zonal, multifunctional scaffold based on collagen (COL) and copper-doped mesoporous bioactive glass (Cu-MBG) serving as release system for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF-BB). The degradable scaffold system is expected to accelerate the wound healing process due to synergy of angiogenetic, bioactivity, and antimicrobial characteristics. This will be the first attempt to create a zonal COL-MBG scaffold system with release of three functional molecules, of which PDGF-BB has not previously been incorporated to MBG. Zonal design enables designed consecutive release profiles, e.g. immediate PDGF-BB from the outer layer and delayed VEGF release from the inner layer of the scaffold. The structure of the scaffold as well as distribution of specific components and their functionality will be characterized using innovative in vitro models including cell culture tests.

Friction is a phenomenon which is present in our everyday life although we tend to remember it only when it is nearly absent such as when “slipping on a banana peel”. Its presence across disparate length scales (earthquakes, car engines down to molecular machines) reminds us of its ubiquity which endows friction of an utmost practical importance. Therefore, attempts to control it are almost as old as civilization. Interestingly, during the past decades we have witnessed a growing progress in miniaturization of devices down to the nanometer scale. “Special problems occur when things get small […] and it might turn out to be advantages if we knew how to design for them”, said Feynman when discussing the prospects of building “infinitesimal machinery”. To achieve this goal, and to design efficient molecular nano-engines, it becomes imperative to know how friction at a molecular level can be controlled. In this project we propose to address this challenge by tuning molecular friction and adhesion via atomic/chemical design. Specifically, we shall study the lifting and sliding of two template molecules (porphyrin and terpyridine) over a Silver (111) surface. These molecules contain substituents groups that act as spinning molecular wheels when sliding over a surface. By proper modifications of these groups (wheels) we can tune the grip/drift response and the efficiency of the ball bearing over which the molecular wheel spins. Here we aim to provide an atomic level understanding of these processes by combining state-of-the-art molecular dynamics simulations with high resolution scanning-probe microscopy experiments conducted in ultra-high-vacuum conditions at low temperature. This will constitute a major step forward in our understanding of dissipation processes at the nanoscale and paves the way to tune molecular friction and adhesion by atomic/chemical design.

The discussion on the modernisation of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is in full progress and one element is how the CAP will benefit from and stimulate ongoing digitisation of the agricultural sector. Digitisation accelerates a cost-effective administration of CAP payments, the update of CAP instruments, stimulates data (re) use for monitoring the societal benefits of agriculture towards climate, environment and rural development and thus improves the sustainability and competitiveness of the sector. Administrative bodies from 9 EU Member States join forces to realise a new vision on the Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS) – the instrument for CAP governance – in this project called: “New IACS Vision in Action” (NIVA). The project is built on an iterative work plan. This ensures fast results, built-in flexibility and greater involvement of stakeholders. NIVA strives for maximum impact by involving all EU paying agencies and other relevant actors in the stakeholder board, by reserving a substantial budget for supporting third parties and the set-up of an innovation ecosystem that will continue after the project. NIVA manages cross cutting digital innovations as well as standardization issues in dedicated work packages as defining, accepting and defending common standards is exemplifying the desire for collaboration. The nine prime use cases are demonstrated in three waves, from national to multi-national to pan-European, hence underlining our ambition to make a significant contribution to improved digital competences, awareness and innovation at the European scale. The project’s results are a suite of digital innovations and a roadmap for IACS transformation. The project will speed up innovation, reduce administrative burden, sustain broader and deeper collaboration in an innovation ecosystem and provide methods to establish information flows to improve environmental performance.

MEMEX promotes social cohesion through collaborative, heritage-related storytelling tools that provide access to tangible and intangible Cultural Heritage (CH) for communities at risk of exclusion. The project implements new actions for social science to: understand the NEEDS of such communities and co-design interfaces to suit their needs; DEVELOP the audience through participation strategies; while increasing the INCLUSION of communities. The fruition of this will be achieved through ground breaking ICT tools that provide a new paradigm for interaction with CH for all end user. MEMEX will create new assisted Augmented Reality (AR) experiences in the form of stories that intertwine the memories (expressed as videos, images or text) of the participating communities with the physical places / objects that surround them. To reach these objectives, MEMEX develop techniques to (semi-)automatically link images to their LOCATION and connect to a new opensource Knowledge Graph (KG). The KG will facilitate assisted storytelling by means of clustering that links consistently user data and CH assets in the KG. Finally, stories will be visualised onto smartphones by AR on top of the real world allowing to TELL an engaging narrative. MEMEX will be deployed and demonstrated on three pilots with unique communities. First, Barcelona’s Migrant Women, which raises the gender question around their inclusion in CH, giving them a voice to valorise their memories. Secondly, MEMEX will give access to the inhabitants of Paris’s XIX district, one of the largest immigrant settlements of Paris, to digital heritage repositories of over 1 million items to develop co-authored new history and memories connected to the artistic history of the district. Finally, first, second and third generation Portuguese migrants living in Lisbon will provide insights on how technology tools can enrich the lives of the participants.

The electric motorcycles industry is still lagging behind its electric cars counterpart, mainly due to (i) much lower pressure to reduce emissions (emissions norms applied to motorcycles are currently significantly less strict than for cars, and are expected to remain as such at least over the next 10 years) and (ii) strong barriers for traditional ICE-based OEMs to move into electric technology (which means a radical shift in terms of design & engineering, production facilities, marketing & sales). Yet, high-performance e-motorcycles already represent a large market potential (estimated in the order of €900M) with expected fast growth (anchored on drivers related to environment, technology/performance, and reducing costs) – providing an opportunity for start-ups to take the lead on a blue ocean market space. Fenris is a Danish start-up company focused on high-performance electric motorcycles. The company has developed and road tested two electric superbike (e-superbike) prototypes and is now entering the zero-series development phase for its first model intended for serial production and commercialization. Fenris e-superbike model RR150RR is designed and built to be the world’s fastest and safest e-superbike outperforming all competitors, including the leading OEMs that still rely on internal combustion engine technology. Fenris RL150RR will deliver the highest torque and acceleration in the market, while being at least 20% lighter than the closest electric competitor (Energica EGO). In addition, our superbike will be the first “smart” and connected motorcycle in the market – enabling advanced data-driven services to the individual rider and across the value chain (e.g. to component suppliers, insurance companies, etc.). The market roll-out of our paradigm-shifting e-superbike is expected to create a major business opportunity for Fenris, untapping a very significant revenue stream and creating >30 new direct jobs in the first 5 years of commerciali

Navigating and Innovating Connected Health Ecosystems (NICHE) How can technology firms beneficially influence healthcare provision? Technology is vital for future well-being given economic and demographic strain on healthcare systems but market innovation has proven difficult to implement. Conventional marketing is based on linear diffusion models created for consumer or investment goods markets. In healthcare however, innovating firms face diverse stakeholders: healthcare practitioners, buyers, consumers, regulators, politicians, the media and the public at large. Innovation in such ecosystems requires interactive and iterative processes of R&D, market sensing, networking, coalition building, and deep understanding of healthcare and regulatory practices. This project will assist healthtech companies to navigate, influence and gain traction for their innovations in complex healthcare ecosystems by designing and testing a healthcare market engagement roadmap: 1) a user-centric assessment tool to identify stakeholders, stakeholder practices and incumbent technologies with which an innovative health technology interacts 2) a strategic engagement model for complex ecosystems 3) a competency framework for ecosystem-shaping skills. A multimethod approach combines ethnography, social network analysis and organizational action research. Training will be sought in healthtech development and commercialization through UC Berkeley’s Center for Information Technology Research in the Interest of Society (CITRIS), in sociology of healthcare and innovation through UC Berkeley’s Center for Science, Technology, Medicine and Society (CSTMS) and secondment at the Centre de Sociologie de l'Innovation, Ecole des Mines ParisTech (CSI), in social network analysis through UCD’s Insight Centre for Data Analytics, in policy/regulatory interactions at UCD’s Applied Research for Connected Health Technology Centre (ARCH) and in research translation on secondment at multinational company, S3.

The OCHER project investigates the relation between in-context historical forms of collective management of lands and resources and their current environmental and landscape value, triggering a reflection on the accessibility rights to natural resources for future generations. Following the Habitats Directive, whose aim is to promote natural habitats taking account of local requirements, 8 sites in 4 different European countries, selected from the Natura 2000 list, are chosen as case studies in a comparative perspective. The research addresses different kinds of “institutions for collective action”, at different scales in rural areas. Here conservation and sustainable use of the environment are centred on "people working with nature" and minimal forms of organisation are mainly households. Therefore, a combined historical, anthropological and juridical approach is needed to achieve: • a better understanding of the long-term effects and resilience of resource use in the environment; • a deeper reflection on the specificity of collective subjects and on the mechanisms of collective legal actions and institutions. OCHER will also address the issue published by the Council of Europe in “Protecting future generations trough commons”, which features the project’s objective outlines with preeminent questions such as: • What do we inherit from past generations from a cultural and environmental point of view? • What is at stake in the environmental issues of the present? • What can collective institutions teach us from an environmental perspective? OCHER aims to contribute, with a multidisciplinary research, to the reflection on a new environmental right, that goes beyond the dichotomy man/nature, trying to understand the historical forms of a non-destructive, nor extractive, relation of interdependence in social and ecological systems. It also addresses the UN 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and intends to take action by means of its research outcomes
