Project description
Expanding EU-US scientific and research collaboration
From 2020 to 2023, the NGIAtlantic.eu initiative sought to enhance collaboration between EU-based researchers and research teams in the United States (US) by providing funding for next-generation internet (NGI)-related experiments. The EU-funded NGI TRANSOCEANIC project is building upon the success of its predecessor, NGIAtlantic.eu and involves the same EU and US partners. The project’s objective is to develop a robust and consolidated ecosystem for the Financial Support for Third Parties programme, fostering collaboration between the EU and the US. The project aims to implement a team approach that engages critical stakeholders from both the EU and US, facilitating a joint call approach between the EU Next Generation Internet initiative and US National Science Foundation Internet programmes. Additionally, the project seeks to expand the EU-US Twinning Lab.
Objective
NGI TRANSOCEANIC builds on the success of the pre-cursor initiative NGIAtlantic.eu [2020-2023], delivered by the same EU partners, and two USA partners, as a strong and consolidated European Union (EU) and United States of America (USA) Financial Support to Third Party (FSTP) ecosystem with 35 funded EU – USA projects on NGI topics.
The main ambitions of NGI TRANSOCEANIC are the following:
1. Comprehensive team approach on involving the key stakeholders from EU and USA in the consortium and already established and expanding EU - USA Twinning Lab, capitalising on their track record, complementarity and networking potential.
2. Having an EU – USA joint calls approach between the EU NGI programme and NSF Internet programmes.
3. Implementation of three dedicated longer term (18 months) open call cycles to be delivered over the 48 months of the project covering expansive NGI topics with €3,200,000 in FSTP funding earmarked.
4. This will be delivered through three different project modalities including projects for advanced technology development, joint demonstrators and joint contributions to standards covering the priority topics of trust and privacy enhancing technologies, data sharing and portability, sustainable and climate friendly internet, electronic identities, internet architecture renovation and decentralised technologies.
NGI TRANSOCEANIC has four Objectives, which map well with its workplan:
O1: EU - USA Next Generation Internet (NGI) Landscape Framework.
O2: Realise EU - USA Open Calls and provide financial support to third-party projects.
O3: Twinning activities and support services for the EU - USA stakeholders.
O4: To ensure maximum impact and sustainability of the EU - USA NGI activities, and to promote the standardisation and industrial application of the NGI TRANSOCEANIC results.
