Horizon 2020EUs program for Research & Innovation
• More emphasis on innovation Horizon 2020 supports all stages in the research and innovation chain including non-technological, social innovation and activities closer to the market
• Greater emphasis on impact, through expected impacts statements Applicants asked to explain how work will bring about described impacts
• Proposals may bring together different disciplines, sectors and actors to tackle specific challenges e.g. scientists, industry, SMEs, societal partners, end-users…
Positive with EU Funding
• Good source of funding• Provides researchers with international exposure, reputation• Understanding the complexity gives competitive advantage• System can be streamlined• Improves commercial and political awareness of researchers• Money attracts more money
Possible Issues with EU Funding• Complexity of the process• High number of proposals/success rate• Too much information• Time to read/understand it all• Many different players with different requirements/priorities
(jungle)• Periods of intense activity (deadlines)• Variety of skills and knowledge needed• Administration burden
Aims of the Grants Office
Overall strategic support• Increase participation in EU projects• Ensure that researchers follow rules• LiUs funding strategy (national, EU, international,
industrial)• Management of EU projects (deliver promised)
Service to researchers• Legal, financial and strategic support• Ensure quality of application funding processes• Streamline participation/writing in Horizon 2020• How to network, lobby, consult• Statistics (proposals, participation, etc.)

Questions to ask Yourself if you are Thinkingof Applying for an ERC Grant:
• Am I internationally competitive as a researcher at my career stageand in my discipline?
• Am I able to work independently, and to manage a 5-year projectwith a substantial budget?
• Why is my proposed project important?• Can it lead to a paradigm-shift?• Is it ambitious and does it aim to go beyond the state-of-the-art?
• Why am I the best/only person to carry it out?
• Is it timely? Why was it not done in past? Is it feasible now?
• What’s is the risk? Is it justified but the potential gain? Do I have a plan for managing the risk?

Negative comments and the improvements
Comment 1. “The potential advantages of the device are discussed
in a very generic manner, and lack a quantitative analysis”
1. Excellence part
Comment 2. “The specific technical training activities planned
to transfer the knowledge to the fellow are not well described in
the proposal
Negative comments and the improvements
Comment 1. “The proposed measures to communicate
and outreach the action activities to different target
audiences are limited in scope and are not properly
detailed”.
2. Impact
Include: • Conferences targeting both academic and industrial
audiences• Attend the MSCA research night (public audiences)• Use social media (FB, Twitter) to promote the MSCA brand
(public audiences)
Reference: “Outreach and Communication Activities in the MSCA under Horizon 2020”
Negative comments and the improvements
Comment 1. “The management structure is
underdeveloped. Details of the frequency and nature of
meetings with the supervisor and host group are not
sufficiently detailed”.
3. Implementation
Add to ”Project mangement work package” several tasks
• Task 1. Face-to- face meeting with supervisors (every twoweeks), 4 progress reports.
• Task 2. Provide all required information for the commission e.g. contracts, financial and technical information, deliverables
• Task 3………• Task 4……….
Some messages
• A ”top” host is VERY important
• All aspects mentioned in the writing guide meant to be important
• The non-scientific parts also contribute a BIG impact to the success of the proposal
• Explain the topics in more details as much as possible
• The submission system can be quite complicated (submit a few daysbefore the deadline)
• Have a good plan due to the summer vacation season
• Second try!
