Background

We support innovative teams in creating tools to automatically meet EU legislative requirements. We aim to fund European consortia to develop digital solutions that streamline reporting, reduce administrative tasks, and boost competitiveness across the EU. Automating compliance processes will make work more efficient for both public and private organisations and strengthen regulation enforcement.

This initiative promotes using advanced technology to collect and share essential compliance data accurately. Funded projects will create data-driven solutions for automatic compliance through practical pilot use cases, changing how businesses follow regulations.

The goal is to develop digital solutions for advanced data collection, analysis, and secure storage using technologies like AI. These solutions will facilitate real-time compliance checks and help organisations stay current with regulatory changes, minimising non-compliance risks and improving transparency through strong access controls and audit trails.

Public administrations and industries facing significant bureaucratic challenges, such as environment, manufacturing, healthcare, and energy, are potential candidates for funded pilot use cases.
