OPEN CALLS

1st Open Call of ARISE is officially open!

Get your Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) solution funded

The ARISE Open Call is now launched and offers a unique opportunity for your organisation to develop innovative HRI solutions and receive up to €200,000 in funding.

Why should you participate?

  • Funding: Receive a grant of up to €200,000 per project.
  • Support and Mentoring: Benefit from a 12-month support program designed to help you succeed.
  • Collaboration: Work with leading experts in the field of HRI.
  • Innovation: Develop cutting-edge solutions that will shape the future of industry.

 

We are looking for teams composed of a maximum of 2 entities:
technology provider + end-user.

  • Technology Provider: A technology provider is a company that develops and supplies the hardware, software, or other technologies needed to implement an HRI solution. This could include robotics, AI, or other relevant technologies.
  • End-User: An end-user is the organisation that will ultimately use the HRI solution in their operations. This could be a manufacturing company, a healthcare facility, or any other entity that could benefit from the use of robots to automate tasks.


We have pre-selected a group of end-users and technology providers in the Expression of Interest. These organisations have demonstrated a strong interest in HRI and have the potential to contribute to innovative projects. You’ll find them in the Guide for Applicants of the Open Call when it will be launched.

We are particularly interested in projects that focus on:
