NGI Search: the new Next Generation Internet project to build a safer Internet!

Finding relevant information on the Internet is like extricating a needle in a haystack.

Have you ever thought about how you search on Internet? 🧐 Which browser are you using? No matter if you look for a recipe or enter your bank account, every Internet user should be safe when searching online. 🔐

This safety has become every day more difficult to achieve, as we are constantly relying on non-transparent organisations offering such services, potentially violating privacy and trust.

The NGI Search project is a European project designed to support
entrepreneurs, tech-geeks, developers, and socially engaged people, who are
capable of challenging the way we search and discover information and
resources on the internet.

With five European partners contributing to the project, NGI Search will organise five Open Calls for innovative projects whereby selected applicants will benefit from financial support of up to 150,000€ as well as technical, business and innovation support over 12 months, to develop solutions that change the way we use and experience, search & discover data and resources in general on the internet and on the web.

NGI Search is driven by a group of five organisations:

  • Aarhus University, which offers its business development support in the field of digital technologies in internet services to the consortium for mentoring and added value services.
  • FundingBox, the go-to funding platform for entrepreneurs and European Leader in managing Financial Support to Third Parties.
  • The University of Murcia, a big-sized University and the ANTS research group from the Faculty of Informatics participates in NGI Search.
  • Linknovate Science, a Spanish-based startup and is bringing to NGI Search its core know-how in expert search and innovation scouting.
  • OW2, a global open source software community organization.
