In the context of the implementation of the AI Act, it is envisaged to establish Union Testing Facilities (UTF) in the area of artificial intelligence to support Member States authorities in the ex-post verification of the compliance of AI systems placed on the market with AI Act requirements whenever deemed necessary. Such Union Testing Facilities shall also provide independent technical or scientific advice at the request of the AI Board or market surveillance authorities. The main objective of this action is to launch a pilot project to prepare the implementation of the concept of testing facility for AI and define the requirements for a full-scale operation of the testing facility (after the pilot phase).

The Digital Decade target expects all key public services to be online by 2030. These should also be available to citizens and businesses from other Member States, without discrimination. The future Interoperable Europe Act will be a significant driver for this, supporting Member States’ efforts in the field on cross-border interoperability and data exchange. This action will help create capacity in Member States to successfully implement the Interoperable Europe Act and prepare the ground for related support measures.

The objective of this action is to showcase in-service, sustainable implementation of the European Electronic Health Record Exchange Format (EEHRxF) in healthcare settings. In particular, it will aim at demonstrating that the EEHRxF brings value, without introducing undue burden on health professionals and health systems. The result of this action will be real-world demonstrators of the EEHRxF that will guide other stakeholders to adopt the EEHRxF, reduce the costs for its adoption and produce lessons learned.

Proposal(s) under this action should expand the geographical coverage of the services offered through MyHealth@EU allowing patients’ access to their consolidated health data and cross-border health data exchanges. Furthermore, it should deploy at scale the EU Digital Identity Wallet in the national eID ecosystems in health and deploy solutions enabling patients to access their translated health data on the basis of MyHealth@EU services.

Edge computing is the essential technology to cope with the requirement for highly distributed and decentralised data processing identified in the European Data Strategy. Edge computing will process and extract value from the ongoing data deluge triggered by the widespread deployment of connected objects and sensors, such as connected cars, home appliances or manufacturing robots. Because it is an emerging market, edge computing represents a significant opportunity for European leadership, in economic, competitiveness, sustainability and data sovereignty terms.

The awarded proposal from this action is expected to focus on data space applications and use cases that contribute to the Green Deal overall, and specifically to the policy objectives set out in four initial focus areas: biodiversity, zero pollution, climate adaptation/mitigation, circular economy. The action will further help supporting and monitoring the implementation of the Council Recommendation on ensuring a fair transition towards climate-neutrality of 16 June 2022, including the primary objective to ensure an effective, fair and effective green and digital transition.

The objective is to develop and deploy a secure and trusted data space for skills. Data is at the core of skills, education, training and employment, offering enormous potential for innovative applications. Databases of job offers, qualifications, learning opportunities, lists of curricula and certifications, inventory of topics studied at all levels of education and training, as well as skills classifications, can help better define human resource, business, employment as well as education and training policy strategies and add value for learners. The data space for skills is a European Common Data Space for sharing and accessing skills data for various purposes, from analytical and statistical purposes to policy development or re-use in innovative applications in line with European values, with a particular emphasis on ethics, diversity and privacy.

The goal of this action is to significantly scale up the deployment and use of the data space(s) for manufacturing by reaching a critical mass of manufacturing industries sharing industrial data and improving company operations. In addition, the action aims to support data-driven transition to a greener and circular economy, also by enabling new business models, for example, those based on a Manufacturing-As-A-Service approach and extended Reality for industrial virtual worlds. The action will also contribute to the implementation of measures that accelerate the twin green and digital transition of manufacturing industries, such as the proposed Net Zero Industry Act as part of the Green Deal Industrial Plan.

Healthcare demands continue to increase due to factors like population growth, aging populations, and the prevalence of chronic diseases. Healthcare technologies can help meet these demands by, among others, increasing effectiveness of treatment and diagnostic solutions and efficiency of health systems. The deployment of new medical digital technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) powered solutions for healthcare purposes requires access to real world health data. The amount of data available to drive the development of AI should be as large as possible to limit the introduction of biases that could undermine the effectiveness and safety of healthcare AI solutions or increase inequalities in access to care

The objective of this action is to contribute to the effective implementation of the Multi-Country Project (MCP) on European common data infrastructure and services with a focus on the mobility and transport sector. The action will support the creation of the common European mobility data space (EMDS), which will facilitate the access, sharing and reuse of data in the mobility and logistics sectors. It will support the implementation of the Communication on the creation of the EMDS. It aims to contribute to the sustainability of common data infrastructure and promote its large-scale adoption.
