European Commission’s Scaling Up Deep Tech Ecosystems
Deadline: 10-Nov-21
The European Commission (EC) is pleased to launch the Scaling up deep tech ecosystems to explore how to fully utilise and build on the experience and knowledge of existing or previous relevant initiatives at pan-European and, where appropriate national or sub-national level, that have exploited the ecosystem-building potential of interactions with industry during the construction, operation and upgrading of research infrastructures.

The proposal should pilot the possibility to seed the development of innovation ecosystems around diverse technological areas related to pan-European research and technology infrastructures by providing grants to pilot projects in three to five different technological areas.
The proposals should:
identify deep tech opportunities related to pan-European research infrastructures with breakthrough potential;
assess the feasibility and scalability of the identified opportunities;
suggest a selection and clustering of those opportunities and nascent ecosystems that demonstrate sufficient maturity to provide a clear potential for industrial implementation;
identify those opportunities with strongest potential towards industrial application with societal or market value;
run and evaluate calls to provide grant funding to pilot projects in the identified technological areas;
assess the outcome of the pilot grants.
