“The Centre will support the research, development and innovation of Brussels, but also of other cities, by supporting forward-looking projects of companies, research institutions and the non-profit sector.

In Germany, Fujitsu is also intensively involved in services, platforms and infrastructures relating to distributed ledger technologies and the use of tangle-based solutions such as IOTA, especially in connection with Industry 4.0 applications.”

So it seems like it’s a project close related to Brussels politics:

“Governments want to make the digital world safer with the new EU-funded innovation project “Protecting Digital Industries” for the Internet of Things, which runs from January 2018 to December 2020 and is funded by the EU research and innovation programme Horizon 2020, led by Fujitsu.”
