Objectives
* Support to the following KAVA segments:
– Education (PhD Education, Master Education, Lifelong Education, Wider Society Learning)
– Upscaling;
– Regional Innovation Scheme (RIS);
– Internationalization
Among financed actions
* Increase in scope of the project (hereafter referred to ‘XXX.PLUS’ projects, where ‘XXX’ refers to the acronym of the existing project): activities that will lead to a demonstrated and quantifiable increased impact of the project (e.g., additional/higherKPIs,creationofasuccess story,etc.);
* Speed-up the launch of a product to the market (hereafter referred to ‘XXX.SPEED’ projects, where ‘XXX’ refers to the acronym of the existing project): activities that will accelerate the launch of a product/service to the market. These activities are specifically aimed at recently finished or ongoing Upscaling and LLL projects with good performance (to be demonstrated by the consortium in the proposal), but in need of 1) additional funding to launch their products/services to the market, or 2) a commercialization partner;
* Development of a Go-To-Market strategy (hereafter referred to ‘XXX.GTM’ projects, where ‘XXX’ refers to the acronym of the existing project). This activity applies only to projects that, at the time of selection, did not have a mandatory Go-To-Market work package and that, therefore, had not budgeted for this activity;
* Applications to COVID-19 (hereafter referred to ‘XXX.COVID’ projects, where ‘XXX’ refers to the acronym of the existing project): activities that, within the context of the existing project, will lead to demonstrated, immediate and quantifiable positive outcomes in the fight against the current COVID-19 pandemic
