ECCC Info Day in Stockholm

As part of the mission to build a European cybersecurity community, the European Cybersecurity Competence Centre organises the “Info Days”, powered by the project ECCO (European Cybersecurity Community), as a series of events to share information on important European calls and financing opportunities.  

The second Info Day event will take place on the 16 June in Stockholm, as a side event to the European Commission’s Digital Assembly (15 - 16 June). 

As an in-person event, this Info Day will offer networking opportunities for the European cybersecurity community to meet and form consortia to answer EU calls successfully.  

The Info Days will support public dissemination of Cybersecurity Calls of the Horizon and Digital Europe Programmes. The Info Days also aim to raise awareness on present and future calls, while involving relevant stakeholders and NCCs. It will also be an opportunity for the audience to engage with representatives of the official bodies issuing these funding opportunities during its panels and Q&A sessions. 

European cybersecurity actors will be offered the unique opportunity to pitch their ideas for project proposals. Interested participants are requested to submit their pitches to infodays(at)list.cyber-ecco.eu. We invite you to follow the instructions below.
