TRANSDAIRY Project data sheet
TRANSDAIRY Project 'TRANSborder Key Enabling Technologies and Living Labs for the DAIRY value chain', funded by the European Union as part of the program ENI CBCMED with a total budget of 3.8 million euros, was launched on October 23th, 2020 and will last 30 months.
The project aims to enhance the Technological Transfer among research, industry and SMEs in the fields of Key Enabling Technologies (KET’s) applied to the Dairy Value Chain, by the creation of Living Labs, the increase of institutional capacities through training, and the development of market intelligence for sustainability by creation of cross border spin-offs in Italy, Greece, Lebanon and Tunisia.
TRANSDAIRY Project will provide financial support for:
- Setting up and managing 8 living labs in Bio/nanotechnologies and ICT (2 Tunisia, 2 Lebanon, 2 Italy, 2 Greece)
- Advanced training courses for Human Resources of Public authorities and specialized intermediaries for R&D Technology Transfer with at least 200 beneficiaries
- Formative sessions in entrepreneurship for creation of Spin-Off
- Development of two Cross Border Open collaborative Platforms for pre- competitive analysis of promising products and services
- Organization of cross-border Brokerage events
- Vouchers for 16 cross border Spin-offs
- Vouchers for 12 co-developed patents
- Vouchers for 28 Co-publications on KETs for the Dairy Value Chain
- Vouchers for 35 demonstrations in real world conditions of research results and innovative KETs for the DVC
To summarize, TRANSDAIRY will allow the research and dairy value chain entities, the actors interested in creating spin-offs and new products and services, to collaborate with each other, their partners, suppliers, prospective clients and users, to tackle shared challenges, improve pre-competitive efficiency by identifying and addressing common issues.
It will modernize practices and support the transition towards a model more adapted to the reality of today's globalization. Besides creating jobs, the project will increase the quality and safety of dairy products, improve productivity and small farmers' revenues.

TRANSDAIRY Project -“Specialized Training for Intermediaries in the Dairy Value Chain”
|
Fosas - Clean Sky
Objective
The proposal is addressed to the exploitation of fiber optic based sensor for structural health monitoring of aeronautic structures and materials. The activity plan is organized in three tasks, according to the call description. The first activity will be focused on preliminary research on the use of Fiber Optic Bragg Grating (FOBG) sensors for the strain evaluation during a fatigue test on metallic samples in corrosive environment, with the aim to define and characterize a new experimental methodology capable to provide an innovative tool for the prediction of corrosion initiation. The second activity is addressed to the demonstration of a new approach for the realization and test of an apparatus for FOBG sensors interrogation. The task is motivated by the need to identify a robust and reliable instrumentation for flight test campaign.

Acem-Rail - FP7
Objective
ACEM-Rail project deals with automation and optimisation of railway infrastructure maintenance. It focuses on the track. The final goal is to reduce costs, time and resources required for maintenance activities and increase the availability of the infrastructure. The project includes both conventional and high speed lines.
ACEM-Rail project will mean an important step forward in railway infrastructure maintenance techniques for the following reasons:
• Several technologies for automated and cost effective inspection of the track (subgrade and superstructure) condition will be developed and prototypes will be manufactured. These technologies will be applicable both to conventional and high speed lines... for more information click here.
BRIDAS - Clean Sky
« Delivering on ambitious objectives »
2018 was another successful year for Clean Sky, thanks also to the commitment shown by both, our public and private members. Working in close collaboration, the Clean Sky 2 Joint Undertaking made a number of particularly notable achievements in the various demonstrator areas. A detailed description of the major technological developments is contained in this report.
More than halfway through the Clean Sky 2 programme, also the numbers of programme contributors speak for themselves: 657 participants in 29 countries, of which 256 are small and medium enterprises, 92 are research centres and 117 are universities...for more information click here.
