Why it matters
Cluster 4 is the main Horizon Europe entry point for industrial and digital companies. The topics on federated and sustainable AI data processing are directly relevant for organisations working on data spaces and sovereign AI. Two-stage calls lower the entry cost: a short first-stage proposal is enough to test the idea.
