What is an Open Call
An Open Call is an open funding opportunity within an EU-funded project. It allows eligible organisations to apply for financial support to develop activities that contribute to the project’s objectives.
Each call defines its own objectives, eligibility criteria, application requirements, available budget and evaluation process. Selected applicants receive funding to carry out their proposed activities, while gaining access to relevant expertise, technologies and project networks.
Why apply?
- Simple application: Submit a focused 10–15-page proposal without the need to build a large consortium.
- Short project duration: Activities are typically completed within 6 months, from project start through to the dissemination of results.
- Direct funding: Selected applicants receive financial support directly, with funding paid upfront to the organisation or designated consortium leader.
- Lower administrative burden: Benefit from a streamlined application and reporting process, with simpler administrative requirements.
- Access to expertise and technology: Connect with KINETIKA project partners and gain access to relevant knowledge, tools and technologies.
- Visibility and dissemination: Selected projects may benefit from visibility through KINETIKA’s communication and dissemination activities.
KINETIKA's Approach
KINETIKA brings together advanced digital technologies to improve how cultural heritage assets are documented, monitored, analysed and preserved. Its technology ecosystem combines imaging, sensing, digital twins, artificial intelligence and predictive modelling to capture both the physical condition and the behaviour of heritage assets over time.
The project brings together a range of specialised tools and technologies, including:
- Cracksight: Detection of fractures and degradation.
- DYNAMO: Drone-based inspections.
- MUSICA: Muography-based assessments.
- VibroSense: Vibro-acoustic diagnostics.
- STEALTH: IoT-based structural monitoring.
- Chronographer: Chronological deterioration monitoring.
- IoT: Optimisation of IoT sensor combinations.
- SimPro & FEM: Predictive and finite element simulations.
- MechGuard: Predictive maintenance.
- ObservAR: AR-based digital twins for cultural heritage.

Learn more about KINETIKA’s technologies
KINETIKA is part of the wider European digital transformation of the cultural heritage sector and its platform ecosystem is aligned with the European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage (ECCCH) framework. The ECCCH is a shared European digital infrastructure designed to connect cultural heritage institutions, professionals and researchers, providing access to data, scientific resources, training and advanced digital tools.
By aligning with the ECCCH framework, KINETIKA contributes to an interconnected ecosystem where digital objects, data and specialised services can be shared and used across the cultural heritage sector. This alignment also supports interoperability with common data models and standards, helping KINETIKA’s technologies and solutions integrate into the wider European cultural heritage landscape.

Through its Open Calls, KINETIKA invites external organisations and experts to engage with this ecosystem, bringing additional knowledge, expertise and practical experience to help develop and demonstrate innovative solutions for cultural heritage.
KINETIKA's First Open Call: Innovate & Demonstrate
KINETIKA’s First Open Call invites eligible organisations to develop and demonstrate innovative solutions for the preservation of cultural heritage. The call offers an opportunity to bring new ideas, technologies and expertise into the KINETIKA ecosystem and explore their potential in real-world cultural heritage contexts.
Selected applicants will receive financial support to develop their proposed activities, while gaining access to relevant expertise, technologies and opportunities to engage with the KINETIKA project.
