- Confirm your PIC number and portal registration well before the deadline, the dual-platform submission (EU portal plus EIT Health's system) adds lead time.
- Since the consortium composition is fixed at two TTOs and one Entrepreneurship Support Provider, lock in partner roles and letters of commitment early rather than after drafting the technical proposal.
- Structure the proposal around delivering two distinct cohorts of the six-month programme, since the budget is split by year (2027 and 2028) rather than awarded as a single lump sum.
