Programme Name

Digital Europe Programme

Programme Description

Digital Europe Programme is the first EU programme that aims to accelerate the recovery and drive the digital transformation of Europe.

Worth €7.6 billion (in current prices), the Programme is a part of the next long-term EU budget, (the Multiannual Financial Framework), and it covers 2021 to 2027. It will provide funding for projects in five crucial areas: supercomputing, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, advanced digital skills, and ensuring the wide use of digital technologies across the economy and society.

The Programme is fine-tuned to fill the gap between the research of digital technologies and their deployment, and to bring the results of research to the market – for the benefit of Europe’s citizens and businesses, and in particular SMEs. Investments under the Digital Europe programme supports the Union’s twin objectives of a green transition and digital transformation and strengthens the Union’s resilience and strategic autonomy.

Digital Solutions in support of the New European Bauhaus Initiative

Summary

The project will identify digital solutions that could contribute to the implementation of the New European Bauhaus initiative and more broadly of the adoption of its values (sustainability, inclusiveness, and aesthetics) in living spaces for a better quality of life. This action will support better coordination of relevant New European Bauhaus stakeholders and digital stakeholders through the creation of a network to this purpose. The project will further accelerate the deployment of projects implementing the New European Bauhaus initiative, and identify best practices in relevant EU funded digital projects.

Detailed Call Description

The Coordination and Support action will have three main work strands:

  • Map relevant projects, policies, strategies and funding instruments supporting the uptake of digital solutions and services relevant for the implementation of the New European Bauhaus initiative;

The action will also identify and support cooperation activities between the New European Bauhaus communities to exchange best practises, analyse successful applications of digital technologies and potential market uptake of digital solutions in support of the initiative;
  • Stimulate mutual learning and transfer of innovative practices between regions and Member States, with a view to encourage large scale deployment of digital solutions and services that are critical for the development of New European Bauhaus projects, facilitate benchmarking, impact assessment and knowledge sharing between stakeholders. In this endeavour, focus will be on giving valuable input for the future deployment of New European Bauhaus projects making use of European key digital capacities.
