Scientific Network Management

Project Strategy Builder

Developing a comprehensive strategy for scientific projects involves a multi-faceted approach. From the initial stages of web design, development, and maintenance, to ensure a project’s digital presence is informative and user-friendly, to the detailed planning and execution of events that bring together key stakeholders, every aspect is carefully considered. The Project Strategy Builder focuses on creating a cohesive plan that incorporates the writing and maintenance of consortium agreements, optimizing communication channels, and ensuring that infrastructure supports the project’s evolving needs. With an emphasis on strategic foresight and meticulous organization, the Project Strategy Builder is an essential tool for any project looking to achieve its objectives efficiently and effectively.

As scientific research projects turn increasingly into development projects, funding bodies consider projects as business opportunities, where the research aims at a product that can be exploited commercially.

Scientists are often not prepared to consider exploitation strategies in their projects but nowadays, it is with this mindset that they must tackle the preparation of projects.

The following questions are meant to address the points that should be taken into account at the time of preparing a scientific project. This list of points is not exhaustive since all projects are different, but we hope that it will help you to clarify your approach leading to the writing a funding proposal.
