Research infrastructures (RIs) operate in complex innovation ecosystems where industry plays an increasingly important role. Pan-EU initiatives, such as the Innovation Union or the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures, revolutionise the way public and private sectors work together, and help to create structural frameworks which are needed to foster such collaborations. While initiatives of this type play a crucial role in enabling industry to become a full partner of research infrastructures whether it is as a user, a supplier, or a co-creator, they do not fully utilise or engage Industrial Liaison and Contact Officers (ILOs/ICOs) which could have a central role in boosting the RI-industry partnerships. To address this gap, ENRIITC will build a permanent pan-European network of ILOs and ICOs. This will be done in a community-driven, cross-functional, cross-sectoral, multiplier-based way which will be inclusive and enable all interested parties to actively participate. By supporting the establishment of strategic, cross-border partnerships between industry and research infrastructures, ENRIITC will enable win-win results for all parties. With a timeline of 36 months, 11 partners from seven countries, and a strong support from 61 Associates from around Europe, ENRIITC will 1) establish a sustainable European network of ILOs and ICOs which enables mutual learning, 2) map collaboration potential between research infrastructures and industry, 3) develop and refine strategies and best practices to foster these collaborations, 4) raise awareness among industry for collaboration opportunities at research infrastructures, and demonstrate impact. The consortium and Associates will jointly balance the need for expertise from diverse scientific areas, combine it with practical insights from establishing relations with various industries operating in different sectors and geographical contexts, and propagate it among their networks.

Ultrafast light pulses offer the fascinating opportunity to study system dynamics at ultrashort time scales. Trains of ultrafast light pulses also feature a broad frequency comb structure that has been exploited e.g. in high precision metrology. These characteristics have made ultrafast optics with coherent control techniques a flourishing field in recent years. A rich toolbox has been developed to generate shorter pulses with engineered temporal and spectral properties. Likewise, exploiting quantum features of light has enabled remarkable progress for the experimental exploration of fundamental physics and has been central to establishing the fields of quantum communication and quantum metrology. This proposal aims to bring together these two vibrant fields with the goal of exploring new capabilities that arise from the interplay of the quantum properties of light at extreme timescales and over extremely broad spectra. Ultrafast quantum pulses feature an inherent non-classical pulse-mode or supermode structure, which is imprinted onto the states in the generation process and is closely related to the entanglement properties between different frequency constituents of the quantum pulses. Harnessing this structure will dramatically enhance quantum channel capacities per signal state, enable precision time-frequency measurements beyond classical boundaries and open new avenues to scalable quantum information processing. Each partner brings unique expertise from the areas of quantum information, ultrafast and quantum optics, which expands the combined knowledge of the consortium. The partners’ research profiles cover engineered integrated optics with pulsed light, quantum communication systems, coherent control of light matter interaction and continuous variable quantum states. Experience in classical ultrafast pulse-shaping as well as advanced theoretical analysis tools addressing high-dimensional entanglement and multimode photon statistics round out the consortium.

The European bioeconomy strategy has estimated that the bioeconomy in Europe has a total value of €2.3 trillion, accounts for 8.2% of the EU's workforce, and is a central element to the functioning and success of the EU economy. The aim of P2P FINBIO is to enable innovation support institutions and clusters in regions across Europe to quickly and effectively develop new initiatives as well as refine current methodologies to identify SMEs in the bioconomy with growth potential, to engage with them and assist them through the process of obtaining access to finance, as a means of maintaining or increasing competitiveness, growth and jobs. The consortium consists of innovation support organisations working within the entire bioeconomy value chain, who recognise the need to learn from each other, to improve the process of assisting SMEs, start-ups and spin-outs with access to finance. The five partners will share the current support services and methods offered to SMEs and will exchange good practices in order to renovate insights and develop a common Design Options Paper. The Design Option Paper will be the result of the peer-review process and will serve as a guide for other innovation agencies interested in implementing the addressed innovation support service. For the best use of the results of the project the goal is set on the possibility to reach as many innovation agencies as possible with the support of the European Association of Regional Development Agencies, EURADA, the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN), as well as clusters working with Bio-based Industries (BBI)

There is a growing demand of technological solutions to detect and identify gas leaks in different industries. It is expected that this market will grow from 5.818 M€ in 2015 to 8.000 M€ by 2020, at a CAGR of 6.6%. Products to be developed and demonstrated in this project respond to the specific needs and requirements from industries in the Oil&Gas and chemical (Sulphur dioxide, SO2) sectors. After phase 1 execution SENSIA has confirmed that these sectors are highly demanding a more efficient solution to cope with their fugitive emissions problems. SENSIA ambition is to commercialize an low cost (price reduction of among 70-80% compared with current alternatives) uncooled camera based on infrared imaging technology that can easily detect and identify fugitive gas emissions in the Oil&Gas, chemical (SO2) and many other industries. This device will be the first of its kind considering that solutions currently available are based on cooled technology, with much higher costs and complexity associated. Three different prototypes will be demonstrated in fully operational industrial environments provided by some of the largest and most representative EU companies such as GDF Suez, Enagas, Repsol or TOTAL. These prototypes respond to clear industrial needs identified during the feasibility study (SME instrument phase 1): • Business case 1: Handheld/portable equipment for punctual inspections. • Business case 2: Fixed closed circuit cameras system for large infrastructures surveillance and monitoring. • Business case 3: On board (UAV/drones) equipment for aerial inspections of large infrastructures. Finally, as profitability indicators this project obtains very positive figures such as NPV of +17 M€ or IRR of the 90%. We expect to leverage more than 35 M€ of profits during the first 6 years of commercialization.

Who is Biel? Biel is a child who has low vision. We are a highly experienced multidisciplinary team, composed by professionals coming from the ICT business, from the clinical research and from the vision diseases research, that have joined to develop smart electronic glasses for Biel and for all who suffer from this disability. Low vision is a condition caused by eye disease, in which vision is permanently limited and cannot be improved with regular glasses, medicine, or surgery. It is much more common than blindness. There are about 220 million people in the world which suffer low vision, and it grows with the aging of the population. People with low vision have severe problems for doing common tasks, like descending stairs, walking alone, understanding street signs or reading. It hampers their lives, professionally and personally. The most handicapping issues are related to mobility. We use computer vision, AI and VR/AR technologies to improve perception capacity of people who have low vision. “Biel Smartgaze” glasses will detect obstacles, holes, changes in the ground surface and street signs. The glasses will identify these items and use augmented reality to show them in a way that the users can perceive with their remaining vision. It will include other features like zoom, image improvement (definition, lightning and contrast), etc., in order to facilitate reading and other tasks, providing a complete solution that suits the needs of the people with low vision. Other advanced features like navigation and people recognition will be added in future versions, giving people with low vision the tools to face any situation in their daily life. The glasses will be configurable to personalize all the functions for each particular case. The goal of our company is not just to let people who have low vision to see better, but to leverage all the potential of their remaining vision by adding the perception capacities they lack, in order to bring them back to a normal life

Immune cells that are empowered by gene-engineering to seek and destroy cancer cells (engineered T cell therapy) constitute a transformative novel treatment that has the potential to cure cancer. Multiple new versions of this therapy are being developed for distinct types of cancer but their introduction into clinical practice is hampered by a lack of standardized and validated models to predict safety and efficacy, customized manufacturing and monitoring to scale up production and clinical use to industry standard, and strategies for optimal patient conditioning. The T2EVOLVE consortium unites scientists and physicians, regulators and policy makers, SMEs, and patient stakeholders to tackle these challenges in an orchestrated multi-disciplinary multi-stakeholder approach. A core feature of this approach will be the embedding of patient stakeholders as contributing members of the team across all levels of the R&D process. The overall aim is the development of an innovation ecosystem that will accelerate the process of developing engineered T cell therapy in the EU. The project will deliver novel tools for education and for improving the communication between healthcare providers and patients, optimized laboratory models that can help determine how safe and effective new therapies with engineered T cells are, standardized methods in which these therapies are produced and monitored during treatment. The consortium members are innovators and pioneers in this field that are dedicated to bringing the EU to the forefront of the global engineered T cell therapy movement. This effort will ensure that EU citizens will continue to have access to the most innovative and best-available medical care, provide guidance on how to implement this novel treatment into the EU health care system in a sustainable way, and secure a leading role for Europe in this emerging field in medicine and science, the economy and society.

Building facades are currently designed targeting high levels of energy efficiency, due to the urgent need for more resilient and sustainable communities, often driving the socio-political and economic priorities. However, environmentally sustainable facades are insufficient to create resilient societies. In seismic hazard zones, façade performance and serviceability can be severely impacted by earthquakes. Façade damage can occur even at low seismic intensities, leading to potential life-safety threat and substantial socio-economic losses. Safer façade systems are thus urgently needed, and SAFE-FACE addresses this need. Damage-control details and sustainable techniques are integrated to develop earthquake-proof sustainable facades for mid-rise new/built residential/office buildings. Moreover, the common façade design is advanced by integrating the seismic study. Multi-criteria performance-based tools/frameworks, including seismic safety as a decisive criterion, are developed (or enhanced) to support the design of façade systems: a novel practice-oriented tool; an advanced optimization-based tool; an innovative probabilistic-based approach. The project is built on the integration of the strength of the Participating Organizations in façade design and the Fellow’s expertise in seismic design. Involving parallel disciplines (Façade Engineering, Earthquake Engineering) and industrial/academic collaboration, the research is topical and represents both a scientific problem and a socio-political priority; it aims at the resilient and sustainable development of the European Community, and timely responds to the safety and socio-economic needs of our modern society. The action will be beneficial for the Fellow’s career, by expanding the applicant’s skills and opening up exciting collaboration opportunities. Being of interest to building industry/practitioners/decision-makers, the research will initiate a virtuous cycle through research-development-education-dissemination.

The underlying innovation idea of this proposal (which is mainly addressing exploitation and dissemination activities), is the development of an Intregrated Nanostructures Assessment-Service for the biological impact analysis of nanostructures (INAS) combining toxicology and LCA studies for innovative materials. In the linked FET project ICARUS (Nr. 713514), a portfolio of LCA and nanosafety assessment tools was developed to determine environmental indicators, emissions and the mass/energy balance related to different materials/solutions adopted for the production of nc-alloys, as well as to ensure the safety of the new alloys at all stages of its life-cycle. This portfolio, including in vitro tests, rapid high-throughput tests and mechanistic toxicity projects applying omics technologies, will be offered for the assessment of the human and environmental safety of the customer´s product, which could be implemented in the customer´s facilities too when requested. The toxicology assessment will be tailored as well to the chemical-related impacts for which characterization factors (CFs) are necessary within the LCA analysis, allowing a full harmonization between the available toxicity data and the customer´s products life cycle, following the European Commision´s Joint Research Centre (EC-JRC) recommendations. In preparation of the INAS service, the exploitation, IPR and dissemination strategies will be defined and implemented in this project, based on in-depth market analysis, business planning and other exploitation-related activities.
