WORKSHOP: Consortium Agreements for FP7 in Cambridge, UK
23 April 2013
Austria
Are you a research manager, advisor or contracts member of staff, needing to know how to negotiate a consortium agreement for a collaborative project in FP7?
Yes? Then the following workshop is essential for you to attend:
CONSORTIUM AGREEMENTS FOR FP7 - Tuesday 23 April 2013
A good consortium agreement can support effective project management and minimise risks to intellectual property rights (IPR). But what is a good consortium agreement? Should power to transfer budgets between partners rest with an elected board, or with a general assembly of all partners? Should affiliates have free access to the IPR generated in the project? Which takes priority: academic publication or commercial confidentiality? Should EC payments be distributed immediately, or only on proof of work done?
This workshop will explain the main features and options for consortium agreements for collaborative projects in FP7. It will compare the DESCA, Digital Europe, EUCAR and ASD model consortium agreements and will cover the major terms of the EC grant agreement, which provides the context.
The workshop will be held in Cambridge, UK and will be limited to 24 participants to allow high levels of interaction and plenty of time for questions.
