New - The Widening Option

We would like to promote and inform you about the widening option applicable to all full-proposals (please see Call Announcement section 7.2.2).

The widening option offers the unique possibility to add fundable partners from the following countries/regions and funding organisations, thereby increasing expertise, capacity and creating added value for the proposal:

•    Belgium – funded by FIO/ VLAIO 
•    Estonia – funded by ETAG 
•    Lithuania – funded by ZUM 
•    Slovakia – funded by MARD
•    Spain – funded by CDTI 
•    The Netherlands – funded by SIA
•    Türkiye – funded by TAGEM

Institutions/Organisations from these countries interested in participating in an already existing consortium can post an entry in the partnering tool. Entries should include the keyword "Widening". Existing consortia in turn can then use the partnering tool to search for a new partner: It is possible to filter by country, but also use the keyword search (--> use „Widening“ to find tailored offers.)

General information:

This partnering tool helps you to find cooperation possibilities within the FutureFoodS calls. It can be used in the following ways:

• Post a Partner Offer/Request

Please post an entry in the partnering tool, if you are looking for collaboration opportunities in project consortia and would like to offer your expertise. Next to providing your contact details, you should give a brief description of your organization. It is important that you provide some key words describing your field of research/innovation and that you specify your interest and the experience, expertise and know-how you/your organization has to offer in relation to one of the listed call topics of FutureFoodS.  

• Search List of Partner Offers/Requests posted by others

The database can be searched by call topics, keywords and all the other information provided by its users.

Please note:

There will be a plausibility check by the FutureFoodS Call Office for each of your entries. If the information given passes this plausibility check, which sometimes can take a few days, your request(s) will be published on the page "List of Partner Offers/Requests". Following the publication all information provided by you will be publicly available.
