  • Enable real-world validation of promising technologies in operational environments.
  • Expand the ecosystem of robotics research and industrial applications by engaging new partners beyond the FORTIS consortium.

Selected projects will receive direct funding and structured guidance to refine their solutions and facilitate market adoption.
