Description

The consortium agreement is one of the first things you need to deal with when you receive the best email in the world from the EU Commission announcing that your proposal has been granted funding.

Here in the second episode in The Implementation Series The Grant zooms in on how what on earth the consortium agreement actually is and how to approach the development of it.

I have again aligned myself with the great capacity independent consultant Georg Melzer-Venturi, who has done consortium agreements a lot of times. He takes us through the important steps in the process and shares tips, tricks, do’s and don’t’s from his many years of experience.

This episode contains an endless amount of crucial tips and heads-up’s for both professionals who will ever be coordinating a project and professionals that have done it already.
