Future and Emerging Technologies (FETs): Two complementary schemes, FET Open and FET Proactive Address new and emerging ICTs and their applications FET Open new ideas and opportunities whenever they arise. FET Proactive aligned with economic and social challenges and

priorities

FET Open (3%) mission High-risk/high return foundational research relevant to future ICT Collaborative high quality and long-term research Multidisciplinary: builds bridges between ICTs and other disciplines Light, flexible and continuous submission schemes
