INVITE envisages a well-connected European Open Innovation (OI) ecosystem, in which knowledge meaningfully flows across borders and is translated into marketable innovations, bringing increased socio-economic benefits to EU citizens. To this end, INVITE applies a multi-stakeholder approach to co-design, pilot and demonstrate in diverse real-life settings demand-driven mechanisms, skill-sets and measures in order to facilitate OI. An innovation voucher scheme will stimulate interactions between the demand and the supply of knowledge via an unconventional yet highly flexible way, namely virtual human capital mobility. At the same time, a highly interactive and flexible e-learning intervention will empower EU businesses with the skill-sets to tap into EU’s knowledge-base and turn it into value, while a public-private co-investment scheme will leverage small amounts of public funds to increase participation of private investors in open and collaborative models of innovation. All pilots will integrate OI support services that will appropriately scale to the needs and capabilities of each case and will be facilitated through open ICT tools. Along the process a participatory co-evaluation framework will keep track of the pilots’ performance and fuel iterative, user-driven refinements to generate results ready for scale up and replication. Dedicated business planning exercises in line with a tailored IPR strategy will pave the way for the launch of a pan-European service platform we dub as Open Innovation Lab, to the market, synergising with existing OI platforms and service offers to co-create value for the European OI ecosystem. To this end, INVITE brings together a complementary and multi-disciplinary consortium, comprised of key players within the OI market including leading platform and service providers, international and regional support networks, ICT solution providers as well as private investor networks and pioneering in OI regional development agencies.

CAMERA (Coordination and support Action for Mobility in Europe: Research and Assessment) is the H2020-MG1.5 Mobility CSA. CAMERA objective is to assess and report on the status of air transport mobility research and innovation in Europe and its capabilities to accomplish the long term mobility goals. CAMERA will quantitatively and qualitatively: evaluate the executed research activities from the last decade on air mobility, identify the current and future gaps and innovation bottlenecks in the context of the mobility goals, and formulate appropriate recommendations. The performance framework and the innovative methodology comprises contextualising each project/initiative in terms of a multilayer, multifactor approach while using state-of-the-art tools in data management, text data mining and modelling. This integrated micro plus macro assessment approach have a heavy quantitative yet qualitative focus, which will allow us to appropriately track the progress of current EU research towards long term goals, such as the FlightPath2050 and the ACARE SRIA. The consortium is composed by Innaxis, University of Westminster, EUROCONTROL, Bauhaus Luftfahrt and DeepBlue, active members in ACARE groups (WG1, IRG and other WGs too). CAMERA partners are also involved- either coordinating or as full partners- in the recent mobility H2020 transport CSAs and mobility-related projects such as DATASET2020 and Mobility4EU, and in other successful ACARE CSAs: OPTICS and COREjetfuel. CAMERA will be supported by an ample Advisory board covering virtually all mobility subdomains, means of transport and stakeholders: manufacturers, operators, airports, ANSPs, industry, passengers, authorities, academia, rail transport, research, maintenance, urban transport. Three additional advisory board seats are pre-booked to interested ACARE WG1 members: one to its representative, and two ones to active WG1 members not yet part of consortium/advisory board

The Long Island Rap Renaissance: hip-hop’s suburban turn and America’s changing Black middle class, 1986-1993 is the first scholarship to bring together a neglected strand of hip-hop history – that of the major role played by artists from New York’s Black outer suburbs in the international explosion of hip-hop as a cultural and aesthetic force from 1986 – with an account of the history of race, class and Black suburbanization that frames it. Not only does this research mark an important revision in hip-hop studies – which thus far has tended to view hip-hop as quintessentially urban ghetto music, focusing its social analysis on extreme inner-city social/economic marginalization, and occluding the socially and geographically complex reality of hip-hop’s development in the 1980-1990s. It also provides an invaluable youthful lens on the major conjunctural shifts, and losses, experienced by African Americans in post-Civil Rights America. This will bring new insights to debates explored by sociologists like Omi and Winant (1986), Landry (1988), Marable (2002) and Wiese (2004) regarding the increasingly ambivalent experience of race, class and suburbia for middle-class Blacks in the 1980s. Looking both to the history of hip-hop’s presence in Long Island, to the developments created there and how its music sounded the suburban Black experience, the study will entwine aspects of cultural and aesthetic history, accounting these globally impactful developments in popular music, with a profound social and political history that is particularly pertinent in today’s political climate. The aim will be to achieve a more nuanced generational understanding of race and class at this pivotal moment in history as it fed into hip-hop, its politics and aesthetics. The study will revise these received histories and make legible the true diversity of African American and Afrodiasporic culture(s) in hip hop.

Located near Bergamo, Italy, our company, AERIS Group, is specialized in design, development, manufacturing and commissioning of air technological applications, ranging from air conditioning over process air technology up to removal and heat recovery. With more than 50 years of experience and a turnover above €4 million, our group is composed of 3 companies: AERIS air technologies, expert in HVAC and filtering, EDENYA for air cooling solutions and MAZZINIICI, our textile division. The technical know-how of our high-specialized professionals, our detailed knowledge of materials, production processes and production methods in the different industrial fields as well as a business strategy turned towards continuous innovation and global presence are the basis of our success and growth. We listen carefully to our customers from the textile sector – which represents 35% of or turnover –, their feedback and concerns on product quality, water and energy consumption. This led us 20 years ago to the development of the patented Supra high pressure water technology. Today, we propose the next step, called Induction Humidification System (IHS): by integrating a customized air distribution and diffusion system with specific diffusers, we can “move” a volume of air 10 times equal to the primary air, and fully mixed with micronized water for even humidity level without water waste. The IHS reduces drastically water consumption by 50% and energy by up to 80%, while guaranteeing an optimum control of humidity (+/-0.5%) and temperature (+/- 0.5 degrees). The IHS system will achieve long-term profitability for both our customers and our company, with an increase of sales reaching €5.7million by 2023, for a total of €15.0 million of accumulated revenues of the 2019-2023 period.

The aim of the feasibility study is for Flybrid Automotive Ltd, a world leader in high-speed flywheel energy storage, to evaluate the technical, market and commercial opportunities of developing an innovative kinetic energy recovery system (KERS) for On-highway commercial vehicles, based on an existing, low-cost Off-highway product. Commercial vehicle operators are under continuous pressure to reduce operating costs of which fuel is a significant part. Flybrid's KERS product will provide a low-cost, short-payback fuel saving product for which there is significant market appetite. Fuel savings also equate to the global issue of CO2 and emissions reduction. The product will be primarily developed by Flybrid, supported by European tier 1s and OEMs in the commercial vehicle industry. The study will look at a number of key areas across a range of trucks/buses models and OEMs: - fuel and CO2 savings - KERS product cost - commercial attractiveness to both the vehicle purchaser and across the full supply chain - market size and growth opportunities The study is expected to show that a simple, low-cost product can be developed that will: - offer 20% fuel and CO2 savings - deliver a <3 year payback on the KERS system cost to truck / bus operators - generate significant market pull and volume growth (10k units rising to 50k units at maturity) - create substantial incremental revenue and profit generation within the full value chain (almost entirely based within the EU). - achieve €38mil profit across the supply full chain at 10k units/annum with the mature potential for €180mil at 50k units/annum It is likely that phase II funding would be sought to support the progression of the opportunity.

Hospital-acquired infections are a major cause of morbidity, mortality and costs in Intensive care units (ICUs) worldwide. The most critical infectious group consist of Gram-negative bacteria that are resistant to multiple antibiotics. We have developed RA-01, a novel drug product and a first line therapy for preventing and curing infectious diseases at ICUs based on the removal of inhibitory antibodies, which are used by bacteria to facilitate their infectivity. This new drug allows an immediate protection to patients admitted to ICU without generating antimicrobial resistance (AMR). RA-01 will reduce public/private healthcare systems costs and improve a social benefit by freeing up hospital beds: €9,150 reduction in treatment costs, 7 days less at ICU and €15 k reduction in ICU costs. Currently, our competitors are focused on new antibiotics and antibodies, so there are no other companies working in the removing of specific antibodies as a preventive and curative method for infectious diseases. The total potential market is estimated to be >13 million patients/year. From this market, will be target ICU patients at risk for prolonged stays: >4 million patients. RemAb Therapeutics is a biotech company that develops a novel class of medicines by removing natural specific antibodies. Our mission is to advance our portfolio of therapies to clinical trials and improve the lives of patients and families affected by infectious diseases. Our drug molecule will be developed and de-risked through clinical trials-Ph2 and then licensed to pharma companies, to finalise their development and bring them to the market By 2026 we expect to reach: a) 14% royalties’ rate on net sales with a RA-01 price to healthcare systems of €800-1000 (complete treatment); b) Total addressable market growing up to about €275 m; c) Net present value of €21.4 m (10% discount rate) and an IRR of 56%; d) Cumulative EBITDA over €23 m; e) 6% market share (240,000 patients); f) 15 newly created jobs.

Prospective cohort studies allow tackling major research questions regarding health and well-being of individuals and communities. JoinUs4Health aims to combine Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) and crowdsourcing as converging approaches to promote inclusive innovation and citizen engagement in cohort research. Objectives are: 1) ESTABLISH and REVIEW a conceptual framework; 2) DEVELOP, TEST and APPLY technology to engage various societal actors; 3) EXPLORE, IMPLEMENT and MONITOR institutional changes and incorporate RRI into the governance framework of three cohort institutions; 4) ADVANCE RRI and citizen science into the mainstream of public engagement, science communication and education; and 5) PROMOTE engagement and COMMUNICATE and DISSEMINATE outputs via traditional and innovative means. The concept is based on crowdsourcing, where cohort participants, the general public and other societal actors can propose research questions or contribute to addressing such questions via working groups. Researchers are encouraged to actively engage citizens and other societal actors in dialogues during the design of their analyses and interpretation of results. Specialists will enhance this synergy by online and offline activities based on the communication strategy to boost engagement and ensure sustainability. An interactive, web-based platform facilitates and social media promotes engagement, communication and dissemination. Targeted education activities are designed and implemented at the school, university and citizen level. Six institutional changes provide the required conditions targeting the areas engagement, open access, communication and dissemination, management, implementation of RRI at cohort institutions, and education. Their implementation will be mentored by an RRI experienced partner and an international RRI advisory panel. It is hypothesized that this approach also counteracts the trend of decreasing participation in cohort studies.

Nodding syndrome (NS) is a neurological, incurable syndrome, currently affecting mainly children between 5 and 15 years of age in South Sudan, Uganda and Tanzania. Since 1950, when NS was first described, its cause has remained a mystery. NS is characterized by head-nodding (an atonic form of epilepsy), often followed by clonic - tonic seizures, developmental retardation and faltering growth. In the affected regions, NS is a major public health problem associated with severe socio-economic consequences. After exploratory missions to South Sudan, Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), we gathered epidemiological evidence that supports the hypothesis that NS is a disease caused by a pathogen transmitted by blackflies, the vectors that transmit the parasitic worm that causes onchocerciasis. This pathogen could be an unknown neurotropic virus or another pathogen that is transmitted either independently or as a symbiont of the worm. We postulate that this pathogen is able to cause typical NS, but also other forms of epidemic epilepsy. We hypothesise that the same disease is also endemic in other onchocerciasis hyper-endemic regions e.g. in the Mbam valley, Cameroon and the Orientale Province, DRC (where it is referred to as “river epilepsy”). In this project we aim to investigate our hypotheses in South Sudan, Uganda, Tanzania, Cameroon and the DRC with a trans-disciplinary approach including clinical-epidemiological, post-mortem, eco-entomological, and metagenomic studies. We will study the effect of vector control methods and ivermectin distribution on the incidence of river epilepsy. So far a multi-country study on NS was never done and nearly all previous studies were cross-sectional, carried out during short country visits. With this long term research plan we hope to finally discover the cause of NS and detect effective control strategies to decrease the incidence of epilepsy in onchocerciasis endemic areas.

The NATEDE project is a breakthrough indoor air-cleaning technology targeting not just the elimination of indoor air pollution but also the creation of healthy new air thanks to a powerful combination of real plants with technology and design (Clairy solution). The novelty of the NATEDE project is based on the introduction of the forced-air system in the natural air purification arena. It is done through the introduction of a specially designed pot equipped with a fan forcing the air to move through the soil and the roots of the plant by stimulating faster and more effectively the process of elimination of pollution and the process of photosynthesis. Moreover, the NATEDE project introduces a mobile internet functionality (in line with the Internet of Things trend) combined with a set of advanced sensors to the equation, whereby users can operate the Clairy solution through their smartphones and tablets, set automatic start/stop time based on predefined parameters (time, level of air pollution, etc.) and monitor the actual indoor pollution. The proof of concept has already been achieved showing that the Clairy solution can reduce indoor pollution to safe levels already within hours of activity. Consequently, Clairy can be considered as one-of-a-kind solution that gives an “extra pair of lungs” to plants.
