ICITY-RDI.BRU
FULL PROPOSAL 2015 (start 2016)
For request for funding of the a
FEDER "ICITY-RDI.BRU PROGRAM "
In July 2014, ULB, VUB and Sirris have submitted to the European Regional Development Funds program 2014-2020 a joint proposal (ICITY-RDI.BRU) for creating a pole devoted to Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) on the common ULB-VUB campus “Plaine”. The project has been funded and will start in the coming months. The project ICITY-RDI.BRU aims at boosting research and innovation in support of activities related to - or making use of - Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the Brussels Region. Such activities include health, transport, logistics & environment… The project proposes to invest in infrastructures and in staff. Synergies with existing or planned facilities such as the Library and Innovation Center, the VUB incubator ICAB, the future ULB Electro-Mechanic-ICT building as well the computer science research laboratories from both universities already present on the campus have been presented as a major asset of the project.The teams that will be financed will be chosen through the present call for proposals. Supported research activities should extend during the entire program period (2016-2020). As part of this project, it has been foreseen to finance six applied research programs that will support ICT activities in the Brussels-Capital Region for a period of five years.
