Coordination and Support of the ‘Cloud-Edge-IoT’ domain (CSA)

This program targets diverse entities, primarily organizations from EU Member States and Associated Countries, that are involved in the Cloud-Edge-IoT domain. Its main objective is to coordinate efforts and enhance Europe's position in advanced data and computing technologies, fostering an agile and trustworthy data economy.

The program funds Coordination and Support Actions (CSAs) focused on advancing the Cloud-Edge-IoT domain. This encompasses activities related to data sharing, data analytics, and the development of next-generation computing technologies, with an emphasis on energy efficiency and trustworthiness.

This funding opportunity provided grants for Coordination and Support Actions, with a specified budget per topic and per expected grant. The financial support is part of the broader Horizon Europe framework.

Applicants for this program were subject to general conditions outlined in the Horizon Europe Work Programme General Annexes, covering admissibility, eligibility, financial capacity, and evaluation. Collaboration in consortia was implicit for Coordination and Support Actions.

The application process for the 'Coordination and Support of the Cloud-Edge-IoT domain' was a single-stage submission, with a past deadline. Proposals were evaluated by the European Commission, and grant agreements for selected projects were expected to be signed following the evaluation.

The funding program is established and governed by the Horizon Europe framework, supported by a range of official documents including the Work Programme General Annexes and the EU Financial Regulation. These documents detail the legal and financial stipulations for participation.
