Description

This funding opportunity, under the Digital Europe Programme, aims to advance the development and expansion of a manufacturing-focused data space within the European Union. The initiative targets legal, technical, and business solutions for pooling large, high-quality datasets from industrial environments, with the goal of enabling authorized AI developers to train generative AI models tailored to manufacturing needs. Key focus areas include predictive maintenance, process automation, supply chain management, product design, and sustainability. Projects are expected to establish frameworks for interoperability and governance, foster collaboration with AI Factories, ensure secure data management, and support long-term financial sustainability. The ultimate aim is to increase productivity and innovation across EU manufacturing sectors by facilitating access to robust and diverse industrial data.
