    NGI vision is to re-imagine the Internet for the third millennium, which has to be an Internet of Human Values, resilient, trustworthy and sustainable. Blockchain and DLTs are promising technologies with enormous potential to develop a more human internet based on NGI Values, but these technologies face numerous challenges that could affect its full adoption. NGI-GO2S contributes to this vision by reinforcing the European Blockchain ecosystem and excellence in research by supporting 76 to 112 promising Bottom-up Projects [BuPs] able to develop and roll-out Advanced Blockchain Technologies [ABTs] aimed to close the scalability, interoperability and sustainability challenges. In order to get it, NGI-GO2S will leverage on Big Data Analytics technology -provided by INNEN, company specialised on advanced IT search solutions- to scout 1.000+ outstanding ‘Blockchain Talents’ and in FBC -the company specialised in building communities around innovative technologies- to attract and integrate outstanding researchers in the European Blockchain Ecosystem. An agile, transparent and flexible continuous 2-Stages Open Call scheme will select the best BuPs. We build on the experience that FBA -European leader in Financial Support to Third Parties- has on this field to make it simple and user-friendly, to allow committed ‘Blockchain Talents’ to focus on delivering solutions to important problems. Finally, NGI-GO2S will deliver a one-in-all Support Program for Standardization of ABTs that will increase the capability of BuPs by complementing their knowledge and skills with world class domain experts in fields, such as security and privacy, DLT technologies, standardisation or open commons business models. NLnet, the entity of reference in Internet domain at EU Level, will provide guidance and mentoring to tackle these topics. All this will contribute to turn excellence research into standards accepted across all kinds of application domains.

    All around the world, organizations and agencies deploy video surveillance to monitor and protect property and public infrastructure, driven by various factors like increasing crime rate, security threats, terrorism acts and even monitoring of law enforcement. The influx of surveillance footage from a growing number of cameras operating at higher resolutions, such as HD, coupled with the desire to increase the retention time of that footage is exploding the volume of the footage available. Organizations that have invested heavily in surveillance infrastructure are keen to exploit it for the automation of surveillance procedures using video analytics solutions. SURVANT will deliver an innovative system that will collect the relevant videos from heterogeneous repositories, extract video analytics, enrich the analytics using reasoning and inference technologies, and offer a unified search interface to the user. An intuitive interface with a relaxed learning curve will assist the user create accurate search queries and receive the results using advanced visualization tools. Ethical management of personal data collected from surveillance videos is integrated in the system design. SURVANT is the follow up of the research project ADVISE (GA 285024), co-financed by EU in the FP7 Work programme in the SEC-2011 call. It intends to market uptake the results achieved in ADVISE and prove the final system at operational environment (TRL9). The market opportunity has been confirmed during the ADVISE project demonstration workshops, where end-users were enthusiastic about the functionality of the prototype presented and some initial interest for purchasing the system was declared. Law Enforcement Agencies (LEAs), critical infrastructure operators and private security organizations are the primary market targets of this action. However, SURVANT pleads to explore new markets that share common needs.

    To achieve the aim of the topic, a systematic approach will be developed and applied to select H2020 results and owners, to support the project development and finally to derive Innovation Fund-ready projects. The ETS Innovation Fund (IF) fosters low-carbon processes and technologies – and many results from H2020 provide promising solutions to be deployed. However, translating R&D results into products and processes and developing viable business cases is a major effort. Beyond that, it is a further great step to mobilise investors and stakeholders to make the projects fly. The IF regulations are challenging for the industry. To cope with all challenges related to the project development and preparation phase of future IF projects, DIAMONDS4IF is designed to a) securing the viability and readiness of the projects, b) enabling applicants to prepare IF applications, c) developing a comprehensive approach towards stakeholders, investors, the public, and across the value chain, d) creating understanding of and preparing compliance with relevant regulations, guidelines, and framework conditions and e) solving questions and challenges arising from the project planning in line with funding requirements and award criteria. Through exemplary work on specific use cases in the field of renewable energy, a toolbox with the necessary methods and tools will be developed and applied. One of the major outputs of the project will be at least 5 sound proposals including the detailed plans for scalability, commercialisation, and financial models to be presented to the IF. Over the medium term, DIAMONDS4IF will develop and nurture a continuous innovation pipeline from H2020 innovations to deployment, which will exploit the synergies between the programmes. The use cases will e.g. directly implement REPower and climate relevant projects, comprising for example ~100MW offshore hybrid energy; 1.5GW of PV manufacturing capacity; 10GW of resource-efficient wafer production in Europe.
