Get up to €123k (equity-free funding), free coaching and free access to top infrastructure
The EU-funded project ONTOCHAIN has €4.2 Million euros to develop a new software ecosystem for trusted, traceable, and transparent ontological knowledge management, and is looking for internet innovators to co-create it.
18 proposals will be selected in the first open call of the project to produce functional and technical specifications for the ONTOCHAIN framework.
Through a 7-month supporting programme, participants will get up to €123k (equity-free funding), free coaching and free access to top infrastructure.
“Today, the digital life is an extension of our physical world and demands the same critical, moral and ethical thinking. By bringing ONTOCHAIN to you and building it with you we expect to contribute to a more distributed and transparent internet that respects and promotes the fundamental values of diversity, equality, privacy and participation.” Caroline Barelle, ONTOCHAIN Coordinator.
How it works?
In the first phase of the programme the 18 selected projects will start by conceptualizing a research project for one of the following topics:
• Applications
• Semantic interoperability
• On-chain data management
• Off-chain knowledge management
• Ecosystem economy
• Ecosystem scalability and integration
Six of them will proceed to the second phase to elaborate the concept proposed in phase one and prepare design specifications to be implemented. Additionally, the best projects will be awarded for the publication of their outcomes.
Applications are open on F6S until 15 January 2021, at 17:00 CET.
