BiggerDecisions Data-driven decision making for a more efficient society

Coordinator: CYBERNETICA AS (EE)

The rapid diffusion of digital information technologies has created an explosive growth in the amount of digital data. 90% of the world’s data today has been created in the last two years alone. The availability of this data has opened up an opportunity to create significant value on all levels of the society. More extensive use of this data for data-driven decision-making (by companies, governments, researchers) could improve European GDP by more than €120 billion by 2020. However, this opportunity is currently restricted by privacy regulations, distrust and business secrets.Sharemind is the…

About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €1.3M toward a total project budget of €1.8M — a funding rate of 70%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 1.6 years from 2017-09-01 to 2019-03-31.
