ESMERA European SMEs Robotics Applications
Coordinator: PANEPISTIMIO PATRON (EL)
The objective of ESMERA is to support EU SMEs in materializing, testing and promoting robotic technologies through:- Providing industrial challenges defined by key EU companies, stimulating SMEs to compete by developing and promoting new technologies that address real life problems and thus already have a market - Engaging a number of Competence Centres (CCs) that can provide an easily accessible environment for developing, evaluating, testing, and demonstrating novel robotic technologies.- Offering direct financial support through a cascade funding mechanism to supplement the technical excel…
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.
EU contribution: €8.0M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 4.2 years from 2018-01-01 to 2022-02-28.
