What is a PPP?
The key Public-private partnerships (PPPs) are European initiatives that support R&D&I in areas of particular relevance to Europe's economy and industrial leadership. To this end, it brings together funds from different areas of H2020 and leverages private sector investment.
Eight such public-private partnerships (PPPs) of strategic importance to European industry are currently active: Factories of the Future (FoF); Energy Efficient Buildings (EeB); the European Green Cars Initiative (EGVI); Sustainable Process Industry (SPIRE); Photonics; Robotics; High Performance Computing (HPC) and Advanced 5G Networks for the Future Internet (5G).
A PPP in the field of big data promoted by BDVA has been launched for 2016-2017.
What is the BDVA?
The BDVA is the European industry association created by the main players in the data sector: association of companies, research centres, European institutions and universities specialised in the Big Data sector and the European Commission, which arose from the need to position Europe as a powerful player in the Big Data market.
This PPP will help focus public, private and academic research efforts to support research and innovation in the field of big data in relation to areas such as energy, manufacturing and health, in order to provide services such as personalised medicine, food logistics and predictive analytics.
BDVA members include ATC, IT Innovation, IBM, SINTEF, the University of Bologna, the Polytechnic University of Madrid, NOKIA Soluciones y Redes, THALES, the University of Duisburg-Essen, Siemens, SAP, Engineering, TIE Kinetix, ANSWARE, Software AG, Orange, Atos, INDRA, ITI, VTT, Fraunhofer, DERI , the Technical University of Berlin, IK4, and Synergic Partners .
