We expect that Project Proposals in telecommunications and ICT will be created.

In addition to the entire scope of the CELTIC Strategic Roadmap, CELTIC is also looking for projects in the field of Non-Terrestrial-Networks and Terrestrial Networks convergence, as we are developing our partnership with the European Space Agency, along with the topics to be read in the corresponding article in the CELTIC News from first half 2022. Projects will be able to join the future collaborative actions.

Some funding public authorities have also expressed their additional interest into the digitalisation of the Economy thanks to ICT technologies, Clean Growth, Remote Health & Care, Advanced Manufacturing, Critical Coms for Emergencies, Open RAN, Private Networks, AI for Massive MIMO, IoT, I-IOT, 6G topics. Please contact CELTIC-NEXT Office for more details and potential strategies to apply.
