The ICT Knowledge Transfer Network and RTC North are pleased to invite you to a one day Master Class, focussed on participation in Framework 7.

The event is applicable to all sectors and the topics covered provide a comprehensive view of the main areas that any organisation planning to participate in FP7 should be aware of.

• Making the right strategic decisions about participation
• Taking the right approach to minimise the cost of participation
• Working with the EU Commission on your proposal
• Available support
• Building a team
• Work integration
• Matching roles to partners
• Consortium organisation
• Partner search methods
• Building a proposal
• Proposal section by section view

This event will offer an opportunity for in depth examination of the task of putting together a winning proposal under Framework 7 and provide you with all the information you require to make strategic decisions about participation.

Developing a proposal for the EU Commission has lots of parallels with proposals to other funding organisations and even private investors. If your organisation is planning to seek funding to support R&D then you will find this day of great value.

 The Master Class is FREE and will be delivered by Eddie Townsend, the collaboration domain expert. Eddie has based the material for the workshop on his experience of successful proposal submissions and management in FP6 and FP7. Eddie has also published articles on the subject of collaboration and the role of collaboration in product innovation.
