All those entities are involved in Maritime Defense domain and are aware that the defense of the European Union is based on reliable sea control. The partners bring in management and technical excellence, wide operational experience as well as an individual network of relationships that eases the interactions and connects peoples with the aim to identify operational needs, operational scenarios, existing gaps, acceptability issues and societal impacts that the proposed innovations may entail. The project comprehensive approach covers the integration of capabilities and innovations from R&T to operations by:
