Funding schemes
• Collaborative projects (CP)
• Small or medium scale focused projects (up to 4 M€)
• Large scale integrating projects (more than 4 M€)
• N.B. Requested budget is an eligibility criteria
• Coordination and Support Actions (CSA)
• Coordination type (typically in the range of 1-2 M€)
• Support type (up to 1 M€)
Funding scheme –
Collaborative projects (CP)
• Purpose: developing new knowledge, new technology,
products, including scientific coordination and/or
demonstration activities or common resources for research
• Participation: minimum conditions, target ‘audience’,
research institutes, universities, industry (incl SMEs),
potential end-users
• Size & Resources: the number of participants and volume of
resources should be compatible with overall objective and
manageability
• Indicative average Duration: 24-60 months
• Activities: Research, Demonstration, Management of the
consortium, Other activities such as dissemination, training
Funding scheme –
Network of Excellence (NoE)
• Purpose: durable integration of the participant’s research
activities/capacities with the view to creating a ‘European
virtual centre of research in a dedicated field
• Participation: minimum conditions, target ‘audience’,
research institutes, universities
• Size & Resources: between 3 and 7 participants
• Indicative average Duration: 48-60 months
• Activities: joint programme of activities: mutual access to
infrastructure, equipment, material,data and knowledge,
exchange of researchers, managers and technicians,
improvement of the quality of the results produced,
optimizing the use of capacities, management of the
onsortium, training, dissemination and communication
activities
Funding scheme –
Coordination and Support

Coordination and
support action
(1)– Research and technological development includes operational activities directly related to the
protection of foreground and coordination of research activities.
(2) - Other activities means any „specific activity” covered by Annex I.
(3) - For beneficiaries that are non profit public bodies, secondary and higher education establishments,
research organisations and SMEs.
(4) – The reimbursement of indirect eligible costs, in the case of coordination and support actions,
may reach a maximum 7% (?) of the direct eligible costs, excluding the direct eligible costs for
subcontracting and the costs of reimbursement of resources made availeble by third parties which
are not used on the premises of the beneficiary.
