ETP Nanomedicine Proposers' Day and Partnering Event - Berlin - 12 April 2010
The ETP Nanomedicine is organising a proposers day and partnering event to stimulate transnational cooperation in the framework of several upcoming European calls for project proposals, which are or will be open in 2010:
- EuroNanoMed ERA-NET (publication: 8th March, deadline: 11th June)
- FP7-Health (publication expected in July)
- FP7-NMP (publication expected in July)
- FP7-ICT (publication expected in July)
We believe the above listed calls for proposals are in particular relevant for the Nanomedicine community at large. As you are certainly aware of, such calls require strong collaboration between research and industry. Thus, an effective way of setting up successful proposals is to indeed personally meet potential partners and by that start preparing common proposals.
The ETP Nanomedicine Proposers’ Day and Partnering Event in Berlin has been setup exactly for the purpose of support ing the important but also difficult process of establishing a sound project consortium and to generate novel and innovative project ideas.
The proposers day will start with a short introduction on the
upcoming calls, providing you some in-depth
and first hand information on the called topics. Subsequently, the
participants will have the opportunity to present their project proposal ideas
in short 5-minute-presentations. Finally, a networking session will give the
participants the platform to establish personal contacts with interested
partners and to exchange ideas on future collaboration.
