The activities of the project have been realized within the five Work packages, which have been the cornerstones of the project and the implementation of which contributed to fulfilment of the project objectives as mentioned above. Below we present the contribution of the project to given goals.
GOAL 1 Establishment of the project management board and processes;
At the beginning of the project, and within the kick off meeting organized in Brno, we have Set-up the governing bodies and day-to-day management processes of the project. The project managers and administrators have been appointed, the data management system (disc) has been established and is used by the project partners. The processes are based on the experiences gained during the realization of other consortial projects, both national and European.
GOAL 2 Further development of the strategic vision of the Centre
The strategic vision of the project is the basic part of the Business plan submitted according to the schedule. To elaborate the strategic vision and research agenda of the project, we have developed the „research capacity analysis“, which has been delivered as the separate deliverable as D2.1 – Research capacity analysis. The research analysis consists of the thorough analysis of the research capacity of RECETOX, of every RECETOX’s research group and partner’s teams. Based numerous inputs, the scientific vision of the center has been created (D2.2) discussed and approved by the internal Scientific Committee. The Scientific vision follows the outlined vision detailed in the project proposal and is based on the collaboration of project partners and their particular strengths.
GOAL 3 Refining the research and innovation strategy
The infrastructure needs of the project were analyzed with respect to the research capacity analysis and were developed based on the scientific vision of the center. The infrastructure development of the center is developed hand in hand with the overall strategy, therefore, we have analyzed a number of scenarios and possibilities, how to upgrade, sustain, develop and internationally link the research infrastructure of the center. With this respect, the RI development plan has been completed (D3.1). The deliverable describing the HR strategy has been developed and submitted (D4.2).
The innovation capacity and the potential cooperation with the business partners are outlined and described in the Business Plan.
GOAL 4 – Development of a detailed plan of development of the research infrastructure
As mentioned below, the robust Research infrastructure development plan has been submitted as a separate Work package. This document provides an overview of the future development of the Research Infrastructure of RECETOX according to the TEAMING project, the RECETOX’s needs and the development of the research infrastructures in the European Union.
GOAL 5 – Development of the business plan.
The business plan has been developed within the H2020 TEAMING project and has been submitted as the separate and main deliverable of the project (D4.3). The presented business plan is based on the joint work of the partners of the CETOCOEN Excellence project. The Business plan is the main deliverable of the project. All the deliverables of this TEAMING project have been used as an input for the robust business plan.
GOAL 6 – Drafting a plan for communication and dissemination activities.
The underlying goal of the Communication is to contribute to the outstanding reputation, which the RECETOX Centre will enjoy not only at specific research forum but also at the other fora represented by relevant target groups. The plan details the communication topics, messages, target groups and channel in its proper mix.
