The IoT European Large-Scale Pilots Programme ran open calls from three projects, namely SynchroniCity, ACTIVAGE, and IoF202 for a total worth value of 10m€.

SynchroniCity open call granted €3m to IoT-enabled urban services that have already been demonstrated in a relevant environment as well as to new cities and other stakeholders to become active participants in the Open & Agile Smart Cities ecosystem.

ACTIVAGE open call worth €600 000 will support experiments that integrate mature IoT technology on ACTIVAGE running deployment sites to boost the value of the current available Active and Healthy Ageing services.

IoF2020 open call included €6m to attract projects with important impact on the food supply chain, high level of technical feasibility & innovation as well as a strong economic sustainability allowing new stakeholders as well as new regions to join the Internet of Food and Farm community.
