In a new global competitive industrial & service value chain SecurIT shall identify future civil security solutions needs and use cases related to specific test beds by selecting and supporting up to 21 new project solutions that will develop new and innovative prototypes. SecurIT is looking for consortia composed of at least 2 SMEs, Member State of the European Union, Associated countries of H2020 or UK, where at least one of the SME should be a technology/IT solution provider.
Focus and challenges
