Introducing the Third-Party Projects of OpenWebSearch.EU
Together for a free and open web search of the next generation
Third-Party activities are driving forces in the OpenWebSearch.eu Community Programme, with project fundings provided by the OpenWebSearch.eu project (funded by the EC under the GA 101070014).
Third-Party projects are closely related to the topics addressed in the OpenWebSearch.eu project and aim to extend and enrich existing R&D activities. They also pursue new activities that are complementary to the project goals and objectives.
By mid-2024 we have closed the last set of open calls for Third-Party research contributions. Since its beginning, the OpenWebSearch.eu project consortium has identified and onboarded 14 funded Third-Party projects in total. Call 1 in 2023 resulted in six Third-Party projects covering technical, legal and economic matters. In 2024 new partners from Calls 2 and 3 joined with specifically targeted technical application projects as well as data/supercomputing infrastructure.
Projects from the 1st Third-Party Call
Conceptual contributions on legal or economic aspects of Open Search, as well as technical approaches to legally compliant data acquisition considering societal constraints.
Projects from the 2nd Third-Party Call
Innovative applications of the Open Web Index. Usage and exploitation of the data provided in innovative applications scenarios or research topics.
Projects from the 3rd Third-Party Call
Computing and data centres are invited to join the OpenWebSearch.eu network of infrastructure organisations and to host parts of the OWSAI infrastructure.
