About Us

CoordinaTEF acts as the coordination backbone for the 4 AI sectorial TEFs (Testing and Experimentation Facilities), co-funded under the Digital Europe Programme. Its main goal is to spot shared challenges across TEFs and facilitate joint solutions. Not only this makes each TEF more competitive but it also saves costs by avoiding duplicated efforts.

While each TEF operates in a specific sector, namely healthcare, manufacturing, agriculture, and smart cities and communities, all four TEFs share a common objective: to strengthen Europe's leadership in AI and robotics.

This entails helping to roll out homegrown tech, building public trust, ensuring alignment with EU laws and values, supporting European intellectual property, and boosting Europe’s digital independence.

CoordinaTEF mission

Connect TEFs with key players like national authorities, EU initiatives, the AI Office, and innovators.

Build the foundation for a broader coordination system across Europe’s AI landscape.

Help shaping long-term strategies for the sustainability of each TEF and their collaboration beyond the project's timeline.

Promote TEFs’ services, resources and best practices across the European AI ecosystem.

CoordinaTEF is a EU-funded project, funded under the Digital Europe Programme, that aims to facilitate synergies among the four AI sectorial TEFs, as well as other European initiatives, to advance and maximise their impact on the overall EU AI ecosystem.

CoordinaTEF plays a key role by ensuring seamless collaboration and coordination between TEFs of different sectors, including agrifood, healthcare, manufacturing, and smart cities & communities.

Its ultimate scope and strategic focus is to advance Europe's unwavering commitment to driving technological innovation and ethical AI deployment.
