FORGING is currently collaborating with the following projects and/or initiatives:

DEEPSYNC

EIC Communities is a Horizon project funded by the European Union which aims to boost the visibility and impact of EIC projects. To do this, it seeks to foster a vibrant innovation ecosystem by setting up three thematic Communities of Practice – Cleantech, Industry and Health. These communities share tools and resources and serve as platforms for co-creation and online and physical activities, thus nurturing a collaborative multidisciplinary environment for EIC projects. In addition, thanks to the DEEPSYNC platform, a pioneering platform designed to raise the profile of projects funded by the European Innovation Council (EIC), the project fosters greater synergy in the deep tech community, to showcase innovation breakthroughs and to engage with policy makers, industry leaders and scientific innovators – all in all it’s an ecosystem for deep tech innovation and co-creation. By working closely with EIC representatives and Programme Managers, the EIC Communities project endeavours to pioneer new engagement practices, offer policy recommendations, and drive innovations that promise a sustainable future.
