C4EDUCATION – CALL FOR PROJECTS/APPLICATIONS

Posted on December 19, 2022

LOOKING FOR DIGITAL CULTURAL HERITAGE APPS

Within the frame of the project “C4Education – Virtual Lab on the Collection and Commercialization of digital tools for Citizen education in Cultural Heritage” we are currently looking for another set of innovative digital cultural heritage applications to become part of our virtual platform including marketplace and training environment.

WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

The call goes out to digital cultural heritage application providers at the intersection of heritage, archives, libraries (cultural institutions) and digital creative industries including audio-visual media and multimedia.

With an eye on onboarding to our platform, we are looking for digital cultural heritage apps with the prospect of economic and societal impact that are already developed and validated in relevant environments. They will be showcased as successful demo-cases in the platform and ultimately provide guidance to other potentially interested European actors through their wide applicability.

Although the call is open for any digital cultural apps, the proposed demo-case should demonstrate a technology validated in a relevant environment (TRL 5).

The application should be in English as a minimal language of requirement.

WHAT IS IN IT FOR YOU?

  • A voucher of 3.000 € per selected demo-case
  • Priority onboarding to the platform (with access to approximately 14.000 cultural heritage professionals and customers)
  • High-quality support for developing added-value-services for customers.

WHAT WE EXPECT FROM YOU?

Selected projects will be required to accomplish the below tasks throughout the nine-month implementation phase:

  1. The applicants shall prepare a presentation kit (product description, slidedeck, 1h tutorial / webinar) of the digital application to be enlisted at the platform and to advertise amongst potential users/clients.
  2. The platform business model is based on the provision of additional services (e.g. full stack servicing, managed hosting, trusted data storage, billing services). The applicants shall contribute 10h of consultancy for our development of appropriate services and certification criteria around the platform-listed products.
  3. The platform acts as mediator for sales and is therefore not liable for the advertised products. Signing of an agreement for platform listing is mandatory. No transfer of property rights to the platform is required.

HOW TO APPLY?

You are kindly asked to fill in the proposal template via https://ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/C4EducationCall2023

Required description of the project shall address the below components:

  • Technical description of the application
  • Defined target audience
  • Compliance with C4Education project objectives
  • Already developed visuals (if any)
  • Medium term future plans regarding the application

+ CVs of relevant staff members

+ Links to related work(projects)

TIMELINE

The deadline for the submission of  proposals is 31 January 2023.
