The project NGI Assure, co-funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (G.A. No 957073), launched its 6th open call for Research and Development projects based on building blocks that contribute to providing technical assurances to make the Internet more trustworthy and secure.
The NGI Assure 6th open call was running for two months, from the 1st October to the 1st December 2021.
A total of 59 proposals were received for this call, and after an evaluation process and legal check,14 projects were selected for funding for a total amount of €544 300., that will be distributed among the granted projects depending on the requested amount. Besides, all ten beneficiaries can access a business and technical support programme, lasting 6 to 12 months.
