FP7 Support Services


Between 2004 and 2006, EARTO worked successfully to obtain a Seventh Framework Programme well attuned to the interests of its members. 

EARTO has now developed a set of services to help members draw maximum benefit from the new Framework Programme.

These services currently comprise:

Training Courses

Short workshops in association with Hyperion Limited (Dr. Sean McCarthy), e.g.:

  • How to write a competitive FP proposal
  • Negotiating and managing FP
    contracts
  • Getting ready for Horizon 2020
  • FP7 advisors course 

Proposal Review Services

Independent expert advice to help members prepare Framework Programme 7 proposals, including full review of proposals prior to submission. This service is provided by four independent consultancies carefully selected and monitored by the EARTO Secretariat. 

DESCA Model Consortium Agreement

DESCA - A modular model consortium agreement for FP7 projects, prepared by experts from EARTO, ANRT, EUROCHAMBRES, KOWI, Helmholtz and UNITE. There are variant models for big and small projects, and for projects in which IP is especially important. DESCA will also develop model consortium agreements for Horizon 2020.
