ARTEMIS Joint Undertaking: Advanced Research and Technology for Embedded Intelligence and Systems

The Artemis Joint Undertaking [JU] Programme is a European Commission Joint Technology Initiative managed centrally by the European Commission and supported by individual participating States. Artemis JU is coordinated in the UK by the Technology Strategy Board.

Artemis aims to tackle the research and structural challenges faced by the industrial sector by implementing a Research Agenda for Embedded Computing Systems.

The Artemis JU will manage and co-ordinate open calls for research activities over a 10-year period with a €2.5 billion research programme on Embedded Computing Systems. The programme is open to organisations within the EU Member States as well as Associated Countries.

Selected projects will be co-financed by the ARTEMIS JU and the EU Member States. UK participants in selected projects are funded through the Technology Strategy Board and the ARTEMIS JU.

The ARTEMIS JTI programme is well aligned to the UK's strengths and strategic priorities. By bringing its global excellence in electronics and software design to bear on platform technologies, industrial growth will be enabled in sectors as diverse as transport, entertainment and healthcare.
