R&D for the next generation of scientific instrumentation, tools, methods, digitalisation and solutions for research infrastructure upgrades

Expected Outcome: Project results are expected to contribute to several of the following expected outcomes: enhanced scientific competitiveness of European research infrastructures; enhanced research infrastructure capacity to address research challenges and EU policy priorities; increased greening and resilience of research infrastructures; increased efficiency of research infrastructures through digitalisation; increased collaboration of research infrastructures with universities, research organisations and industry, fostering an innovation ecosystem that provides the foundations for the development of innovative companies and startups while considering EU technological sovereignty; fostering the uptake of innovation outside the scientific research market, through co-development with industry of advanced technologies for research infrastructures; integration of research infrastructures into local, regional, national and global innovation systems and promotion of entrepreneurial culture. Scope: The aim of this topic is to deliver innovative scientific instrumentation, tools, digitalisation, methods and solutions which advance the state-of-art of research infrastructures (RIs) in the EU and Associated Countries and show transformative potential in RIs operation. The related developments, which underpin the provision of improved and advanced services, should lead RIs to support new areas of research and/or a wider community of users, including industrial users.
