  4. Whytwo-stage procedure? • History: two-stage calls introduced in 3rd Call FP7-Health-2009, since then increasing numbers of two-stage topics, since 6th Call ONLY two-stage call • New “strategy“ of EC towards the end of FP7 • less topics open per call • several projects funded per topic • broader topics • decrease „writing burden“ for applicants in 1st stage • increase success rates for full stage proposals

  5. Howtowritetwo-stage proposals (I)Example Guide forApplicants 6th Call 6th Call FP7-HEALTH-2012 – twosubcalls • FP7-Health-Innovation-1 • FP7-Health-Innovation-2 “SMEs for Innovation“: specialsubcall, shorterprocedures, onlyfor European partners, max. 5 partners Stage 1- Administrative issues : • Only the coordinator completes the A-forms (A1, A2 and A3) • In form A3, only a single set of budget figures and the corresponding requested EU funding is required for the whole project. • Do not complete additional A2 and A3 forms for the other partners

  6. Howtowritetwo-stage proposals (II)Example Guide forApplicants 6th Call Cover Page stage 1 • Proposal full title: • Proposal acronym: • Type of funding scheme: • Work programme topics addressed: • Name of the coordinating person: • List of participants:

  7. Howtowritetwo-stage proposals (III)Example Guide forApplicants 6th Call List ofparticipants: List all the expected members of your consortium.

  8. Howtowritetwo-stage proposals (IV)Example Guide forApplicants 6th Call Please indicate the estimated budget for the proposed work as accurately as possible.

  9. Howtowritetwo-stage proposals (V)Example Guide forApplicants 6th Call Stage 1 proposal content (maximum 6 pages for section 1 and 2 together) 1: Scientific and/or technical quality, relevant to the topics addressed by the call 1.1 Concept and objectives Explain the concept of your project. What are the main ideas that led you to propose this work? Describe in detail the S&T objectives. Show how they relate to the topics addressed by the call, which you should explicitly identify. The objectives should be those achievable within the project, not through subsequent development. They should be stated in a measurable and verifiable form, including through the milestones that will be indicated under section 1.3 below.

  10. Howtowritetwo-stage proposals (VI)Example Guide forApplicants 6th Call Stage 1 proposal content (maximum 6 pages for section 1 and 2 together) 1.2 Progress beyond the state-of-the-art Describe the state-of-the-art in the area concerned, and the advance that the proposed project would bring about. If applicable, refer to the results of any patent search you might have carried out. 1.3 S/T methodology and associated work plan Present an overview. ???

  11. Howtowritetwo-stage proposals (VII)Example Guide forApplicants 6th Call Stage 1 proposal content (maximum 6 pages for section 1 and 2 together) 2. Impact 2.1 Expected impacts Provide an overview on how your project will contribute towards the expected impacts listed in the work programme in relation to the topic or topics in question. Mention the steps that will be needed to bring about these impacts. Mention any assumptions and external factors that may determine whether the impacts will be achieved. When appropriate (relevant for the topic): With regard to the innovation dimension, describe the potential areas and markets of application of the project results and the potential advantages of the resulting technologies/ solutions compared to those that are available today.

  12. Howtowritetwo-stage proposals (VIII)Example Guide forApplicants 6th Call • The maximum combined length for sections 1and 2 is six pages. • Note: The cover page, the participant list, the budget table and the table of contents (see below) do not count toward the page limits specified for stage 1. • The minimum font size allowed is 11 points. The page size is A4, and all margins (top, bottom, left, right) should be at least 15 mm (not including any footers or headers). • Ensure that the font type chosen leads to clearly readable text (eg. Arial or Times New Roman). • As an indication, such a layout should lead to a maximum of between 5000 and 6000 possible characters per page (including spaces). • The Commission/agency will instruct the experts to disregard any excess pages.

  13. Howtoreally do it! • use Arial Narrow as font type! • none or minimal literature references in 1st stage 1.1: Concept and objectives - around 1 - 1.5 pages • describe overall idea and concept, list objectives with e.g. bullet points (first overall objective(s), then detailed specific objectives) • try to answer the following questions in the 1st paragraphs…. • Why bother? What problem are you trying to solve? • Is it a European priority or could it be solved at national level? • Is the solution already available? • Whynow? What would happen if we did not do this now? • Whyyou? Are you the best people to do this work?

  14. Howtoreally do it! 1.2. Progress beyond the state-of-the-art => around 0.5 to 1 page • Clearly oppose STATE OF THE ART vs PROGRESS BEYOND/ INNOVATION 1.3. S/T methodology and associated work plan => 2 - 3 pages • this is the core part of the application! and should include short workpackagedescriptions, and milestones, a small diagramm to illustrate WP connections (Pert Chart), etc.

  15. Howtoreally do it! 2.1. Expected impacts => around 1 page What impact will your results generate, how and by whom will the results be used? • Whichresultsareexpected? • Applications? Commercial, socialorscientific? • Who is the Lead User of these results? • How relevant are the results for the Lead User? • How do theresultsgettotheleaduser? • Dissemination andExploitation? Whichpartnersareinvolved? • How will the exploitation/dissemination be done? • Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) –Production, Marketing, Licenses, Patents, etc.

  16. How to really do it – Summary and Tips • has to be excellent, innovative idea that fits 100% to the call topic • readers has to be “captured” by idea after the first paragraph • the 1st stage is a “mini full proposal” – not just a vague idea, but a fully structured proposal with specific objectives, workpackages, milestones etc. • clear impact section – if SMEs involved, describe impact for each SME and for the market • can be divided into scientific impact – clinical impact – economic impact – societal impact…. • even if not asked for, try to include your consortium skills in some sentences throughout the proposal – you are the best! • projects with clinical trials: some essential trial data need to be described in 1st stage already (patient numbers, in- and exclusion criteria…)

  17. Stage 2- Full Stage

  18. Evaluation (I) • Innovation-1: Stage 1 proposals will beevaluatedremotelybyindependentexternalexperts, thendiscussed in consensusmeetings • all proposalspassing all thresholds will beretainedatstage 1

  19. Put yourself in the shoes of an evaluator! 1. Let’s divide into 5 groups ( 7/8 each); 2. Read the proposal individually; (15 min) 3. Note down how you evaluate it for S&T and Impact. (5 min) 4. Start the discussion with your team and draft together your evaluation on a ppt if possible (15 min) 5. Present your evaluation to the other groups ( 4 min) Does it go through to second stage?
