Everything thats going on at Enfold is collected here
Hey there! We are Enfold and we make really beautiful and amazing stuff.
This can be used to describe what you do, how you do it, & who you do it for.
Industrialisation of sustainable and circular deep renovation workflows
Expected outcome:
Scope:
Proposals are expected to address all of the following:
Digital solutions to foster participative design, planning management of buildings, neighbourhoods and urban districts
Expected outcome:
The transition to a climate-neutral society requires that Europe’s building stock also becomes climate-neutral. At the same time, Europe’s building stock has to become climate resilient. This requires a comprehensive approach beyond individual buildings, namely at the level of neighbourhoods or urban districts. However, the decarbonisation of the built environment and its adaptation to a changing climate and to societal needs in terms of comfort, accessibility, inclusiveness, and aesthetics cannot happen without active participation of the buildings users and occupants, individual/collective property owners, and energy communities as beneficiaries of the value chain.
Proposals are expected to address one or both of the following points:
European Quantum Excellence Centres (QECs) in applications for science and industry
Expected outcome:
QECs should contribute to a library of a new quantum applications and open source software platforms used for building quantum computing and stimulation applications for specific areas. QECs should provide services supporting different usage models for the community needs, including developing, maintaining, optimising and scaling quantum applications, addressing the full scientific/ industrial workflow, testing and validating codes and quality assurance.
QECs should also create meeting places for users and organisations working on similar nascent technologies and offer specialised training and capacity building measures to develop the human capital resources for increased adoption of quantum computing in industry and academia.
Scope:
Mutual learning and support scheme for national and regional innovation programmes
Expected outcome:
Scope:
Culture and creative industries for a sustainable climate transition
Deadline: 07 February 2024
Expected outcome:
Projects should contribute to all the following expected outcomes:
Scope:
The cultural and creative industries are an important source of growth and job creation in the European economy. Moreover, the CCIs play a key role in shaping culture, values and perception across the European Union and beyond. Thus, the role of the CCIs in achieving the European Union’s climate transition objectives is crucial.
Specific approaches are therefore needed to enable Europe’s CCIs to develop their full potential to support a sustainable climate transition.
Proposals should provide for testing and refining such model(s) through small scale pilot trials under real world conditions. These pilot trials should verify the economic, social and environmental sustainability of the action(s), as well as the efficacy.
A wide set of stakeholders should be involved, in order to ensure that pilots are developed in an effective and realistic way, so that conclusions can readily be taken up and solutions scaled up effectively.
Proposals should build on existing knowledge, activities, networks and platforms, notably the ones funded by the European Union.
Europe’s cultural heritage and arts- promoting our values at home and abroad
Deadline: 7 February 2024
Expected outcome:
Projects should contribute to all the following expected outcomes:
Scope:
The European Union should endeavour to use its cultural and creative assets to better assert its influence around the world. The arts can play an important role on building the contemporary image of the EU by increasing the visibility of the European identity, cultural heritage and the promotion of its values. In addition to the cultural benefits, the increased visibility of European arts and culture abroad can foster a sustainable and inclusive local, regional and national development and growth, including the growth of the cultural and creative industries (CCIs), the environment, peace and security, migration, gender equality, justice, or freedom of expression.
The objective of this innovation proposal is to test existing practises and policies that enable arts and culture to promote European values and identities outside Europe, allowing people to experience European arts, culture and traditions both in their original environments and settings and by visiting the rich European cultural landscapes. It also aims to identify potential existing barriers and propose a mixed model for cooperation that will take into account participation at the local ,national and regional level and the coordination of different sectors and stakeholders.
