Tips for Applicants
- ✓Only the Coordinator submits the pre-proposal via the online platform, confirm consortium roles and submission responsibility early since a single applicant can coordinate only one proposal.
- ✓Budget carefully around excluded costs: PhD stipends and tenured academic staff salaries are not eligible, so plan direct costs (capped at €330k per partner) accordingly.
- ✓Since private sector participation from SMEs and start-ups is encouraged, consider recruiting an industry partner to strengthen the consortium profile before the full proposal stage.
