Eligible entities have the unique opportunity to become a new project partner contributing to one of the 7 e-shape showcases targeting specific communities of users (agriculture, health, renewable energy, ecosystem, water, disasters, climate).
New e-shape pilots will benefit from a grant of up to EUR 50,000 as well as the e-shape project support including co-design methodologies, deployment support, users’ uptake, capacity building & liaison, sustainability & upscaling, communication, dissemination & Help Desk.
“e-shape is a great opportunity to support EuroGEO within GEO and to showcase the strengths and the tremendous contributions of Europe for and with users”, highlighted Thierry Ranchin, scientific coordinator of e-shape.
Onboarded partners will pass through an open, fair, and competitive process. On the e-shape website applicants will find the Guide for Applicants and the Application form. The Call for EO-based products 2020 will close on September 4th 2020 at 17:00 CET.
