Funded by Horizon Europe, the EU's key programme for research and innovation, Radioblocks unites leading research institutes, industry, and academia to strengthen Europe's role in global radio astronomy. Officially launched on March 1, 2023, and set to run for four years under the coordination of JIVE, the project includes 33 partners working across five targeted work packages.

Radioblocks aims to develop new technological components that will enhance the entire data chain, from signal reception to data processing. These building blocks have been recognised as essential by radio astronomy research infrastructures for achieving higher sensitivity, wider frequency coverage, larger fields of view, and more advanced data processing.

Progress across these themes will open up new opportunities for breakthroughs in radio astronomy and provide a significant boost to Europe's scientific competitiveness.
