The HS2 Data Transmission Network (DTN) will provide network transport services and specific central service functions necessary for the reliable operation of trains on HS2. The DTN shall fulfil the following high-level requirements: • Provision of a Critical network for safety-related connected sub-systems: DTN-Critical • Provision of a Protected network (DTN-P), distinct from the critical DTN network, connecting non-safety-related subsystems. • Provision of a secure, geo-redundant external interface via a De-Militarized Zone (DMZ). DTN acts as the aggregator for internet and cloud connectivity from its DMZ. The DTN DMZ also acts as the interface to Network Rail to connect HS2 rail systems to Conventional Rail services hosted in Network Rail's telecoms network. • Provision of the DMZ, including central compute and servers, protected by internal and external security perimeters. • Provision of a Master Clock System, providing accurate clocking internally and to connected subsystems with Precision Time Protocol (PTP) with boundary clock functionality, Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE), and Network Time Protocol (NTP). • Provision of other services include: DHCP, DNS, AAA authentication, Network Management System (NMS) for supplied operational systems. • Provision of optical and electrical SFP (where required) to facilitate the above inter-connectivity.

Nova Education Trust is seeking to appoint a single strategic partner to provide a fully integrated IT Security and internet filtering platform across the Trust. The Trust operates a diverse educational environment comprising primary, secondary and post-16 settings, supporting approximately 12,000 students, 5,000 endpoint devices, over 140 servers and 19 school sites. The current security environment includes firewall infrastructure, internet filtering, endpoint and server protection, and managed threat detection and response services.

The current video wall hardware and software are redundant and the software is currently running on out dated windows software. Currently, it is a stand alone system, however, we need to integrate the new system so that it can have cyber security patches. Therefore we need to tender for a whole new video wall system which can be integrated into a Gassco approved cyber secure environment.

Expected Outcome: This action will establish a strategic European initiative to develop scalable, modular, and interoperable photonic quantum computing platforms. Proposals for this topic are expected to address and provide credible solutions to at least two major technical roadblocks currently limiting the advancement of photonic quantum computing such as: The lack of deterministic, high-efficiency photonic entanglement and loss-tolerant architectures suitable for fault-tolerant scaling The absence of a standardised, integrated control stack combining photonic hardware, firmware, and system software with reliable benchmarking across platforms Project results are expected to contribute to the following expected outcomes: By 2028, demonstration of a photonic NISQ processor with ≥100 photonic qubits, integrating deterministic single-photon sources, low-loss waveguides, on-chip detectors, and a firmware stack (scheduler, controller, compiler), validated via hardware-agnostic benchmarks and hybrid photonic-HPC applications demonstrating classical-quantum crossover By 2030, delivery of a full-stack, high-connectivity photonic quantum computer, with modular scalability, integrated…

Expected Impact: The action under this topic is expected to achieve the following impacts: Accelerate EU access to more cost-effective interventions in an increasingly ageing population by identifying personalised treatment approaches for elderly-onset immune diseases. Decrease disease risk later in life by defining specific prevention strategies based on ageing biomarkers and risk factors. Halt age-associated disease exacerbation by the identification of predictive and digital biomarkers that can stratify patients for early intervention. Improve quality of life for healthy individuals and patients by preventing further health decline, avoiding escalating care costs, and properly stratifying individuals earlier in the diagnostic pathway. Accelerate adoption of innovative diagnostic, preventative, and therapeutic strategies, strengthening the EU’s position as a healthcare innovator. Evaluate digital biomarker as potential regulatory endpoints in the ultimate goal to develop medicines for ‘healthy ageing’. Integrate fragmented research efforts by bringing together health industry sectors and stakeholders to develop clinical and multi-omics data integration capabilities. Enable new…

Expected Outcome: Successful proposals will contribute to the Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability and Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation, the Chemical Industry Action Plan, the Clean Industrial Deal as well as the Horizon Europe Mission "Restore our Ocean and Waters by 2030" in particular to Objective 2: "Prevent and eliminate pollution of our oceans, Seas and waters". Projects results are expected to contribute to the following expected outcomes: Full industrial scale biorefinery and related value chain(s) to produce SSbD bio-based solutions for home and/or personal care sector with significantly improved sustainability. Wider availability of bio-based products in home and/or personal care sector meeting both regulatory standards and technical performance requirements. Increased consumer/end user acceptance of bio-based solutions, facilitating market uptake. Contribution to the EU strategic autonomy, resilience and competitiveness, reducing the fossil feedstock dependence for chemicals production and minimising biomass imports dependencies. Scope: The home and personal care sector, including fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) and cosmetics, is a key industry where…
