- New Focus Areas: Introduction of robotics and automation as key application fields for the open Cloud-Edge continuum, emphasizing AI-based robotics in logistics, industrial production, and lab automation.
- Project Duration: Projects should not exceed December 31, 2026.
- Funding Cap: Limitation of funding to €25 million per company and project for predominantly experimental development.
- Intellectual Property: Commitment to grant non-exclusive licenses at market prices for IP-protected research findings.
- Funding Type: Non-repayable grants.
