Partner Sought

Expected Role of a Partner
Seeking Dynamic Collaborators: Join Us in EU Projects!

Are you eager to embark on exciting EU projects but need the right partners to make it happen? Look no further! We're searching for partners who fit the following criteria:

Inclusive Partnerships: Whether you're a small startup or a renowned institution, from any corner of Europe, private business or research and education facility, we welcome partners of all sizes and backgrounds. Diversity strengthens our consortium and ensures a rich tapestry of expertise.

Coordinator Support: While we're enthusiastic about collaboration, we lack the resources to coordinate projects or proposals. Thus, we're seeking partners who can step into the role of coordinator, facilitating communication and project management.

Innovative Research Ideas: Do you have a research idea burning bright with potential? We're eager to hear it! Proposed ideas will undergo our scrutiny for legal and ethical compliance, so they have the best chance of passing the rigorous selection process.

Openness to Legal and Ethical Guidance: Legal compliance is non-negotiable, but so is ethical integrity. We're looking for partners who value legal and ethical feedback and are willing to integrate it into the proposal to ensure regulatory adherence and project integrity, even if that sometimes means having to say no to an idea that is just not legally feasible. Making things possible is and will always be the main goal though, with a clear “no” as a last resort.

Diverse Sector Expertise: From technology to healthcare, social sciences to environmental studies, every research sector is welcome. Each sector brings unique legal and ethical requirements and opportunities for innovation.

In summary, we're on the lookout for dynamic collaborators who share our passion for innovation and commitment to excellence. Together, we'll harness the power of collaboration to drive meaningful change and make a lasting impact within the EU framework. Join us in shaping the future through collaborative EU projects!
