The Grant

The is the first ordinary episode of The Grant podcast. I start building a batch of generic episodes covering each phase of preparing an EU R&D funding proposal from the initial idea is born until submitting the final proposal to the EU Commission. I have labelled this The Timeline Series. Here in the first Timeline Series episode I dig into the basic project idea and what to be aware of when considering applying for EU funding. The episode covers the origin of an idea; strenght of the idea; European added value; has it been done before?; duration of the project and time to contract; marketability and replicability of the idea; funding rates; and the aspect of project partners. 

The episode contains advice within the mentioned categories above and gives insights into the most important things to be aware of.

This is the intro episode of The Grant - The EU Funding Podcast. 

There is a hole in the podcast market - there are no podcasts on EU R&D funding even though thousands and thousands of people every day are trying to get their heads around how to develop the best proposals to realize their research and innovation projects. This podcast will answer to this. The podcast will focus on the Horizon Europe funding scheme and will focus on challenges and give suggestions how to solve them with tips, tricks and a heavy luggage of experience. Focus will be on the processes leading up to actually writing the proposal document, the writing process itself and what happens when the funding is secured. The episode will outline in more details what to expect and the format. 

Enjoy!
