The project mission is to&nbsp;achieve climate neutral and digitized production via a multidisciplinary, human&nbsp;centric, objective oriented innovative approach resulting in technical&nbsp;solutions for open swarm framework, non-public 5G network, active information&nbsp;continuum and digital twin. In essence, it establishes a unique forum where separately maturing technologies of 5G and cloud-edge continuum, data&nbsp;technologies and analysis (including data spaces and GAIA-X) and operational&nbsp;technology (automation and agility) break their siloes to co-design and co-create&nbsp;through 10 trials. It will showcase key achievements such as smart assembly,&nbsp;sustainable powertrains, improved resilience with remote operation, 5G powered&nbsp;programmable logic controllers (PLCs) for real time distributed control&nbsp;systems, safe and autonomous transport of goods in factory, 5G enabled process<br>aware Automated guided vehicles (AGVs), plug &amp; connect 5G for industry,&nbsp;mobile intelligent agents for zero plastic waste, smart maintenance and&nbsp;optimization, remote quality control for zero defect resilient manufacturing. The project includes 3 testbed groups (in the north, center and south of&nbsp;Europe) with industrial test facilities from previous public\/private&nbsp;investments co\/creating with reputable industry players. Aligned with the&nbsp;technical activities, Zero-SWARM includes a tailored engagement program towards&nbsp;a wide audience, including collaboration with Digital Innovation Hubs and key&nbsp;initiatives in Europe. In addition, open innovation practices involve industry&nbsp;players as clients of developed technologies via Zero-SWARM community and the&nbsp;expression of interest mechanism.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 6.0pt; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;\">The 30-month initiative, which has received&nbsp;close to \u20ac8 million contribution from the European Commission (Grant Agreement&nbsp;no. 101057083), is coordinated by the Ethniko Kentro Erevnas Kai Technologikis&nbsp;Anaptyxis (CERTH), a non-profit research and innovation center located in&nbsp;Greece. Dr. Anastasios Drosou, Principal Researcher at CERTH with years of&nbsp;experience in ICT sector will be the coordinator of Zero-SWARM. Dr. Pouria&nbsp;Sayyad Khodashenas, 5.5G \/ 6G Expert at Huawei Technologies Sweden, specialist&nbsp;on the Industry 4.0 green &amp; digital transformation will be the technical&nbsp;manager of the project. Mr. Nicola Ciulli, form Nextworks, will play the role&nbsp;of Zero-SWARM exploitation and innovation manager. Zero-SWARM community is&nbsp;managed by FundingBox, the Europe&#8217;s largest deep tech ecosystem.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 6.0pt; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;\">Zero-SWARM in line with the European Union&nbsp;prioritizes such as the Green Deal and A Europe fit for the digital age brings&nbsp;together 27 organizations from 10 European countries with complementary&nbsp;expertise and skills.
