OPEN CALLS

 

With the aim of expanding the WASABI ecosystem, the project foresees two different Open Calls to finance 20 additional experiments.
This represents a huge opportunity for SMEs and Small Mid-caps to participate in the process of Digital Transformation of Industry 5.0, receiving complementary funding for the full implementation of their experiments.
The involvement of new experiments will undergo three stages:

1. Experiment design by the proposers
2. Submission of the experiment by the proposers
3. Selection of the experiments
