On 22th May 2025, a hybrid event combining an info day and matchmaking for the GenAI in public administration call as well as the Digital Participatory Forum will be held at the Committee of the Regions, Brussels, offering further opportunities for networking and consortia-building. This event aims to bring together Stakeholders who are interested in building consortia for the Call for Proposals such as public administrations at the national, regional, and local levels, as well as research and technology organizations (RTOs), universities, and system integrators. For active networking, pitching sessions presenting concrete project ideas and onsite matchmaking are planned.

As part of the European Commission’s Apply AI Strategy, a new call for proposals under the Digital Europe Programme
2025-2027 was launched to fund up to four Generative AI (GenAI) pilot projects for Public Administrations. The pilot projects will introduce scalable and replicable GenAI solutions into public administration, helping to enhance decision- making, optimize internal processes, improve accessibility, and simplify bureaucratic procedures.
The call has a total budget of €21 million (€5-7 million per project).

The grant for procurement is primarily intended for public administrations at the national, regional, and local levels.
Consortia may also include other entities, such as research and technology organizations (RTOs), universities, and
system integrators, which will support the procurement process and assist with the technical deployment and adoption
of GenAI solutions. While these entities contribute to the overall effort, they are not the primary providers of the
solutions. To foster citizen engagement and ensure inclusivity, the participation of civil society organizations and NGOs
is also encouraged.

This is a restricted call inviting organizations from EU Member states as well as from Iceland, Norway, Switzerland, and Liechtenstein to participate in the consortia.

Participants can use B2Match for online matchmaking to connect with public administrations and other stakeholders
based on shared interests and needs. The platform will be open throughout the application phase from 15.04 - 02.09.2025.
