DG CNECT is holding a webinar for the news media industry and other stakeholders active in media to explain the recently published calls for proposals altogether worth €16.5 million.
Three different calls aims to support media technologies, cross-border cooperation and people’s access to information. Potential applicants will receive general guidance on the application process.
A first call worth €8 million focuses on setting up or expanding European Media Hubs, for example virtual or physical cross-border newsrooms. It will support the development of joint editorial production and common content offers on European affairs, in several languages, between different media organisations across Europe, fully respecting editorial independence.
The deadline is set for 25 September 2023.
The European Media Platforms call, worth €6 million, will help media organisations increase their reach, and aims to stimulate the production of innovative news content through tools using technologies such as artificial intelligence, web3, blockchain, as well as sophisticated search engines and content recommendation algorithms.
The deadline is set for 18 October 2023.
A third project, worth €2.5 million, will help create a European streaming portal that facilitates people’s access to diverse content provided by public and private broadcasters. It will also use artificial intelligence tools and prepare the ground towards more immersive and shared viewing experiences.
The deadline is set for 30 September 2023.
