Seventh Framework Programme (FP7)
For more than 17 years, AquaTT has been a key partner in projects funded by the European Commission. We apply best practice techniques in our leadership and participation. AquaTT facilitates effective interaction between key stakeholders and manages knowledge generated out of European research, with the intention of ensuring maximum exploitation.
Principal activities:
- Project management
- Stakeholder facilitation
- Internal communications
- Dissemination
- Education and training
- Technology Transfer
What we offer:
-
We provide grant application support from an experienced and motivated team to increase the likelihood of a favourable evaluation: customised descriptions of tasks and work packages to not only impress evaluators, but to be of real practical value if the project is selected; editorial support and proof reading by our excellent team of proposal writers.
-
We can be your knowledge management partner for the entire project life cycle: identification and prioritisation of new knowledge generated out of projects, and design of appropriate mechanisms for maximum exploitation and knowledge transfer
-
We can identify key performance indicators so that your project’s results can be measured, and any slippage can be recognized early on and corrected during the course of the project
-
We can be your link to AQUA-TNET, the largest education and training network in aquaculture and fisheries. Now in its 12th year, AQUA-TNET has more than 100 international partners, of whom AquaTT is the secretariat; visit www.aquatnet.com.
-
We can provide a channel to the European Aquaculture Technology and Innovation Platform, EATiP, where David Murphy, AquaTT’s Managing Director, serves as a facilitator for the knowledge management working group.
-
We can put together realistic and cost effective budgets and financial schedules grounded in our data from previous project participation. A qualified accountant is part of our team.
-
We can help develop a project brand, extending to the areas of customised logos, leaflets, posters, manuals and project websites
- We can provide your project with access to well-established communication and dissemination channels.
