Scope:

The Celtic Information day is primarily a forum to exchange information about upcoming ideas for future proposals and to help building new project consortia.

In addition, it will provide participants with a reminder on the goals and objectives of Celtic and about the current status of the programme. Potential proposers will be informed about the approaches and conditions to submit a Celtic proposal in Call 3, and the process which is planned for evaluation, labelling, and then application at national level in line with Eureka rules.

The event is targeted at R&D experts who intend to prepare a proposal under Call 3 of Celtic or who are interested to join a consortium.

Proposers will get the opportunity to present their ideas to potential project partners (max 5 minutes per presentation).
