As part of “Turkey in Horizon 2020” project, we organised the fifth a series of free webinars for SMEs on Questions and Answers Relating to Accelerator Proposal Submission programme.

The webinar consisted of short presentations by national and international experts covering EC requirements, Turkish experience and evaluator interpretation of the 3 key elements of an Accelerator proposal; IMPACT; EXCELLENCE and IMPLEMENTATION. The event also covered the requirements for Annex content and good practice in preparing Pitch Deck presentations. The main purpose of the event was for SMEs to raise questions under these headings so that the panel of experts can help by providing answers during transmission.

A recording of the subjected webinar and associated presentations are available.

European Research and Innovation Days 2020 were help completely online. For 3 days experts from across Europe presented success stories, policy initiative and ideas as well as a glimpse into the forthcoming Horizon Europe.

The content of the event was based on an in-depth analysis of the key aspects that evaluators base their judgement on, supported by coverage of good practice in converting facts and data into winning proposals, writing techniques, the various requirements in ‘standard’ proposal sections and evaluators’ viewpoints on what is good practice to attract higher scores. There were also presentations on Turkey in Horizon 2020 project, the Accelerator pilot programme – focusing on the consequent changes in SMEI and a presentation on the help available from TÜBİTAK. Participants were invited to send their draft proposals ahead of the meeting and then discuss them in private online meetings with the TAT Experts at the event. The facility proved less popular than previous (face-to-face) PWCs, with no proposals being sent in ahead of the event.

Let’s shape the future together

European Research and Innovation Days is the European Commission’s annual flagship Research and Innovation event, bringing together policymakers, researchers, entrepreneurs and the public to debate and shape the future of research and innovation in Europe and beyond. This year, it is a fully virtual event.

From tackling the climate crisis to building a digital world that works for everyone, we’ll delve into the questions that shape who we are and the future we want to live in: it’s time to get involved!

The event is all about collaboration: bringing together individuals and experts from all areas to build connections and ignite a brighter future.

A record more than 250 companies logged on to our 7th Project Writing Training event for SMEs on 24th August 2020. Our training events are usually staged as face-to-face meetings in various locations across Turkey, but because of on-going international restrictions on travel and public gatherings due to the global pandemic, this event was held on-line. Presentations were given by TUBITAK and key/non experts from the Turkey in Horizon Phase II Project, broadcasting from Turkey, Greece and the UK. The event concluded with an interactive Q&A session.

The organisers were pleased with the popularity of the event and the many questions raised and responded to during over 3 hours of transmission.

The 1st webinar was dedicated to the IMI-2 Call for proposals. The Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) is working to improve health by speeding up the development of patient access to innovative medicines, particularly in areas where there is an unmet medical or social need. It is facilitated by collaboration between the key players involved in health research, including universities, research centres, pharmaceutical and other industries, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), patient organizations, and medicines regulators. IMI is the public-private partnership (PPP) in the life sciences. It is a partnership between the European Union (represented by the European Commission) and the European pharmaceutical industry (represented by EFPIA, the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations). Through the IMI2 programme, a €3.3 billion budget is being allocated for 2014-2020.
