The AI, Data and Robotics Association (ADRA) was founded on May 21, 2021 by five European organisations: BDVA, CLAIRE, ELLIS, EurAI and euRobotics.

The purpose of the association is to promote European research, development, innovation and industry and to foster a positive perception of artificial intelligence, data and robotics through participation in the Partnership (PPP) for Artificial Intelligence, Data and Robotics.

The participation of the Department of Electronics, Information and Bioengineering in ADRA will allow the Politecnico di Milano to continue to play a central role in these disciplines at the European level, as well as giving it the opportunity to influence the Strategic Research, Innovation and Development Agenda (SRIDA) drawn up by the partnership, which then contributes to the definition of the research workprogramme in Horizon Europe.
