As this year’s Security Research Event in Bonn had to be cancelled due to the coronavirus COVID19-pandemic, the fit4sec team would like to offer you a digital platform to connect prior to the official publication of the new security research work program in Horizon Europe. Hence, we cordially invite you as an expert to the upcoming fit4sec online seminar series in January 2021.
Although it is still being negotiated which topics will be given priority in Horizon Europe, it is becoming apparent that building consortia and preparing submissions in 2021 must proceed swiftly. The work program will most likely be published officially later than usual, however the deadline for submissions is expected to remain the same in late August 2021.
Leaving less time for the preparation of the applications, this seminars aim to bring together experts from industry, academia, civil society and public bodies to discuss the focal points of the upcoming European security research agenda. In the break-out sessions a number of national and bilateral projects will be introduced in order to identify common points of interest with other European initiatives and explore the potential for a joint submission in the upcoming European security research program.
Additional information about the seminars will be provided shortly.
Please let us know by the 11th of January 2021 at caroline.vdheyden@bigs-potsdam.org whether you would be able to participate and which session you would like to attend.
