Intuitively, most
companies first hearing about FP6 regard it is a source of finance. This is a
basic misconception. Although activities are well funded, the money should not
be the main reason to participate. It may however, be a valid reason for a
research institution or an academic. FP6 programs have valuable opportunities
for both academy and private sector such as;
-
Development of advanced technology,
-
Access to advanced technology,
-
Collaboration with key players,
-
Collaboration with key customers,
-
Access to a new market,
-
Access to a new geographic area,
-
Development of an international
standard,
-
Marketing and/or technological
intelligence,
-
Funding for something you were
planning to do.
Today's high competition conditions preparing and developing a project is quite
hard to achieve. Although challengeable and innovative project ideas are very
valuable, they are not applicative without a well-formed consortium and
management structure. Additionally, there are significant differences between
previous framework programs and other international programs with respect to
FP6. These differences could be seen in project structures, evaluation and
project management criteria.
