This first Work Programme of the Smart Network and Services (SNS) Partnership supports the following Key Strategic Orientations, as outlined in the Horizon Europe Strategic Plan:
- KSO A: Promoting an open strategic autonomy by leading the development of key digital, enabling and emerging technologies, sectors and value chains to accelerate and steer the digital and green transitions through human-centred technologies and innovations.
- KSO C: Making Europe the first digitally led circular, climate-neutral and sustainable economy through the transformation of its mobility, energy, construction and production systems.
In addition, the Work Programme is expected to contribute to the following goal:
- Foster Europe’s technological leadership in digital technologies and in future emerging enabling technologies, by strengthening European capacities in key parts of digital and future supply chains, allowing agile responses to urgent needs, and by investing in early discovery and industrial uptake of new technologies.
