About the NWO national cybersecurity call
At the launch of the third edition of the National Cyber Security Research Agenda, NCSRA III, on the fifth of June, NWO announced a new call for cybersecurity research proposals with a total budget of at least five million euros, and within the framework of the national Top Sector policy. We are three months later and NWO will publish the call in a few weeks: “Call for Proposals Cybersecurity – Digital Security & Privacy”. This call initiated and funded by the NWO domain Social Sciences and Humanities, the NWO domain Science and the Taskforce for Applied Research SIA, meets the need to facilitate chain-wide research collaboration in the field of cybersecurity.
Matchmaking
To bring academic, public and private parties together, as well as different research disciplines, the NWO subdivisions mentioned above organize a matchmaking event, which will be held 13 November 2018 in New Babylon, The Hague. NWO does this in close cooperation with the partners involved in this call, dcypher, Commit2Data, Social Infrastructure Agenda and the Top Sector Creative Industries.
Consortia
Communities associated with the stakeholders mentioned above are invited to participate. This includes not only academic researchers but also researchers from universities of applied science as well as representatives from public and private enterprises. The goal is to address the NCSRA III challenges articulated in the five different pillars of the NCSRA III from different angles and disciplines.
The matchmaking is co-funded through a MIT Grant for network activities by TKI HTSM.
