News

Who should attend?

This event addresses researchers interested in submitting project proposals to the third ICT call under FP7, Challenge ICT - 2007.2.2: Cognitive Systems, Interaction, Robotics.

The information day aims at helping participants, to better understand the work programme and criteria for the evaluation of proposals, to facilitate sharing of ideas and experiences, and to find partners for project consortia.

Please note that the agenda will be focused on the research topics of Challenge 2. If you are interested in FP7 in general, in guidelines for funding applications or financial procedures, you might be better served by attending an information day in your country. For dates, please check directly at your National Contact Point.

Programme

The information day will offer half-day plenary session aiming at providing participants with information relevant for preparing proposals to the third ICT call, Challenge 2: Cognitive systems, Interaction, Robotics. Main issues are the research challenges in the work programme and criteria for the evaluation of proposals.

During the breakout parallel sessions interested delegates will be given a 5-minute slot to present their organization's main areas of work. This is intended to be a partner-finding opportunity where delegates can state what skills they can offer, or what they are looking for. The session is open to any interested party; in particular we welcome organizations with little or no previous experience in EU funded programmes.

The remaining time will allow for participants to present posters in order to advertise their skills and find project partners, or to discuss their proposal ideas in meetings with other potential proposers or Commission staff.

Travel information

Terms of participation

Participation to the event is free of charge, but travel and accommodation costs are to be borne by delegates. Since the number of participants is dependent on space available, places will be allocated on a case-by-case basis. With this in mind, and to help us ensure that the widest possible range of participants is represented, organizations should send only one delegate whenever possible.

Since the space available in the conference centre is limited, we would advise not to book your travel before your registration is confirmed.

Registration

Please note that, in line with the security rules, only registered participants can access the conference centre.
