EdgeAI is a key initiative for the European digital transition towards intelligent processing solutions at the edge.

EdgeAI is a key initiative for the European digital transition towards intelligent processing solutions at the edge. EdgeAI develops new electronic components and systems, processing architectures, connectivity, software, algorithms, and middleware through the combination of microelectronics, AI, embedded systems, and edge computing. It will demonstrate the applicability of the developed edge AI hardware/software/algorithms approaches across various vertical solutions, considering security, trust, and energy efficiency demands inherent in several use cases. The project covers key strategic application areas such as Digital Industry, Energy, Agri-food and Beverage, Mobility, and Digital Society.

Convergence’s role

Convergence will focus mainly on communication, dissemination and exploitation activities: (1) Process improvements: Tailor-made and more efficient communication and engagement methodologies to maximize the project’s outreach and exploitation opportunities; (2) Generation of extra business/new market: Reach new markets and business opportunities in the wider data analytics domain. Convergence will contribute to the deployment of human-centric approaches for EdgeAI; it will ensure that all offerings will be communicated and disseminated in the wider EU community in the most efficient manner, enabling the full exploitation potential of the envisioned intelligent data analytics at the edge.
