It will be held as a part of the RuleML+RR 2026 in Vilnius, Lithuania from August 24th to 26th. It will be co-located with several events as part of Declarative AI 2026, including DecisionCamp, the Reasoning Web Summer School, and multiple other satellite events of RuleML+RR 2026 (Rule Challenge, Doctoral Consortium, and Industry Track).

The session will provide an opportunity to:

• Discuss funding opportunities such as Horizon Europe, Digital Europe, ERC, ELLIS, etc.

The session targets research and innovation projects operating at all stages:

• Ending (or recently ended) projects, which have results to transfer and/or dissemination of results;
