Projects and proposals involving Action members are listed in the Repository under "Projects". Members reported 26 projects and proposals on HiTEc topics: 18 funded projects and 8 further proposals, from 15 countries (October 2026). The MoU set a minimum of ten proposals.

D9 - ECI award and ECI sessions (Objectives OC4, OC5)

ECI awards were given in 2025 to Dr Bojana Milošević (University of Belgrade, Serbia) at the HiTEc & CoDES 2025 workshop (Limassol, July 2025), and in 2026, during COMPSTAT 2026 (Athens, August 2026), to Dr Louisa Kontoghiorghes (King's College London, UK) and Mr Jose Graña-Colubi (University of Oviedo, Spain) for their presentations on Poisson non-negative factorisation for topic models and on regression for random star-shaped sets. ECI sessions, in which early-career researchers presented their work and received feedback from senior members, were held at the WG meetings in Athens (2024 and September 2025) and at the HiTEc & CoDES workshops (Limassol, 2023 to 2025). The Athens 2024 meeting also included round tables on early careers and gender balance.
