REACH

The REACH project, an initiative born out of the successful efforts of EDI – European Data Incubator, and European Commission’s Horizon 2020, aims to accelerate data-driven innovation in Europe, towards the vision of the Common European Data Space and European Data Market.

REACH will establish an innovation support mechanism and a multi-stakeholder ecosystem that will facilitate the experimentation of secured and trusted data-fuelled solutions which utilize proprietary, often multi-stakeholder, industrial and personal data. REACH will go beyond EDI, not only by connecting data corporations with European innovators, but also by engaging Digital Innovation Hubs in the conception of high potential data value-chains and value-added services.

REACH is an incubation programme, run by 11 partners. The highly versatile and experienced consortium will put to use their knowledge, networks and key assets to facilitate the development of 100+ data-driven business ideas. It will create a fertile ground for startups and SMEs to solve real-life challenges of large corporations, by providing the following benefits:

  • Equity Free Funding 120K
  • Access to Large Corporations and their Industrial data sets
  • Access to Digital and Business Skills
  • REACH toolbox for secure and trusted data value chains
  • Big Data Computing Infrastructure
  • Access to Private Investment
  • Visibility
