Open Call for Solution Ideas (COVID-19)

Deadline: Oct 1, 2020  
CALL EXPIRED

People in our world are threatened by the COVID-19 virus and effects that arise from infections and illnesses. AMable aims to support ideas that help against shortages in products, problems in medical care and other issues that affect our social life and the economic environment. And we do this in two steps:

1. We ask for the definition of challenges where additive manufacturing can apply its potential. Once we have collected a number of high impact challenges, we will publish these as "challenge-sets"
2. We will then call for your proposal of a "solution idea" to those one challenge from the "challenge-set". The proposal needs to be short - only about two pages, and it will need to be submitted within two weeks.

The selection of such proposals will be done quickly and support of up to 10.000 Euros will go to the applicant to experiment on the realisation of the "solution idea". Experts from the consortium will actively support the activity to jump start and accelerate the work.

This call opens on April 1st 2020 and will close on October 1st 2020.

"Challenge sets" will be published regularly on this page while the call is open. These publications of the "challenge sets" will define the submission date and the precise application procedure per challenge.
