TEFs are specialised large-scale reference sites which help innovative technology providers bring their product from lab to market. They are funded by the European Commission and national member states with ca. €60 million each. Four TEFs started on January 1st, 2023, covering different sectors:

🔘 Healthcare: TEF-Health

🔘 Agri-Food: agrifoodTEF

🔘 Manufacturing: AI-MATTERS

🔘 Smart Cities & Communities: CitCom.ai

They are jointly inviting the AI community to celebrate their openness for business. TEFs offer primarily technical support to innovators to test their latest AI-based software and hardware technologies at scale in real-world environments. This includes support for full integration, testing, and experimentation of the latest mature AI-based technologies to solve issues and improve solutions in a given application sector, including through validation and demonstration.
