LEDGER: The Venture Builder for Human Centric Solutions

LEDGER, a European project financed by the European Commission, is looking for 32 human centric innovators to develop Minimum Viable Products and Services, in order to achieve new models that preserve citizens’ digital sovereignty, where data is a common good owned by citizens and wealth created by data-driven platforms is equally distributed.

In its first open call the project will select 16 PROPOSALS in the verticals of: #HEALTH, #ECONOMY, #MOBILITY, #PUBLIC SERVICES, #ENERGY & SUSTAINABILITY, and #OPEN  INNOVATION.

#HEALTH: LEDGER supports solutions to leverage patient-generated health data in a decentralised way, leading to a measurable improvement of life conditions of patients and promoting decentralised data governance practices and tools to access data in a secure and disintermediated way, while preserving data integrity.

LEDGER is looking for SMEs, organisations and researchers that want to shift data management, leveraging on decentralised algorithms based on blockchains, distributed ledger technology (DLT) and/or peer-to-peer (P2P) technologies to address Privacy-by-Design, reliability, trustworthiness and openness to build human centric solutions.

The 16 selected companies will go through a 9-month customised venture builder programme receiving up to €150K in funding, and the best 8 will be offered additional €50K and will get in a business focused programme of 3 months.

 

Application deadline: 30 April 2019
