High interest in the CELTICs 3rd Online Pitching Session for the upcoming CELTIC Spring Call 2020 (open until 30th of March) – The Online Proposers Day was highly appriciated by the 150 registered persons! The goal of the Proposers Day was to provide information about CELTIC-NEXT and to exchange new project ideas in the ICT Community. Information about funding opportunities in Canada and Sweden were presented by the public authorities to the audience.

CELTIC-NEXT Proposers Days are discussion fora for organisations related to telecommunications and ICT that are interested to participate in a R&D project and want to benefit from performing collaborative research through the EUREKA Cluster CELTIC-NEXT. The CELTIC Online Pitching Session included a short session on the funding situation in Canada and Sweden.

The session started with a short Welcome of our Programme Coordinator Christiane Reinsch and an introduction to  CELTIC-NEXT and the future strategic directions of the CELTIC cluster to the audience. Funding opportunities were presented by Mrs Sanja Šain-Strömberg (Public Authority, VINNOVA Sweden) explaining funding in Sweden and Mr Kasturi Narayanan (Public Authority, NRC Canada) giving details on the funding situation for CELTIC through NRC Canada. Best hands on experiences for new project proposers from Mr. Pekka Eloranta (Sitowise, Finland) was given to the audience.  During the webinar insights on the CELTIC Spring Call 2020 (30th of March 2020) and an overview on the timeline from the submission of a CELTIC proposal to the label of a CELTIC proposal was explained. The target audience for this webinar were participants interested in building a project consortium for future CELTIC Calls for proposals.
