Call

Dissemination and Exploitation Support Facility

Summary

This action should be implemented as a CSA awarded to consortia of at least three entities who should have a proven track record of success in Dissemination & Exploitation and related training, communication and networking.

Detailed Call Description

The consortium is expected to closely collaborate with the ongoing NCP network WIDERAnet, other NCP projects and the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN).
The consortium should establish a facility including training, upskilling, entrepreneurship, access to capital, best practice sharing, knowledge exchange and community of practice building for beneficiaries of the Widening countries with a first priority to beneficiaries of ongoing or completed widening projects funded under Horizon 2020 or Horizon Europe (this action could be extended to other H2020 and HE beneficiaries in Widening countries if budget cannot be exhausted by the widening portfolio).

The scope of the services should include the valorisation of research results that were not immediately generated within a widening action but in a related domain under a different funded action. The consortium should ensure that the developed services address the full geographic scope of the Widening countries including Outermost Regions.

This action will help to ensure sustainability of widening actions especially Teaming and Excellence Hubs after the end of the funding period.
