Call for Proposals - SME Initiative on Digital Content and Languages FP7-ICT-2011-SME-DCL Closed!
Objectives
SMEs have ideas that sometimes cannot be implemented because they depend on the availability of data resources or specialised tools that are too expensive to obtain and maintain. In some areas, data pooling, sharing and reuse are further complicated by Europe's many languages. Actions under this objective aim to make it easier for innovative players, especially SMEs, to exploit and contribute to large digital resource pools. User-centred experimentation will be supported as well, with the aim of demonstrating the integration of data-intensive technologies within innovative solutions and processes.
Target outcomes
- Bootstrapping a data economy
- Community building and best practices
- Sharing language resources
- Building consensus and common services
Two deadlines are set for Short and Full proposals: 28 April 2011 and 28 September respectively. Note that the Director-General responsible may delay the deadline for Full proposals by up to two months.
