Consortium Agreement

Once their project has been selected, project partners of each consortium funded under the EIG CONCERT-Japan Joint Call will sign a Consortium Agreement, listing the rights and reponsabilities of each project parter, before the official start date of the projects but no later than six months after it.

The Consortium Agreement should cover specific Intellectual Property Rights issues such as access to background, dissemination, ownership of foreground, etc. and any other issues that might require special clauses.

Scientific and technological outcomes and any other information derived from the collaborative activities funded in this call can be announced, published or commercially exploited with the agreement of all partners in a funded project and according to the national/regional regulations as well as international agreements concerning intellectual property rights.

Please refer to “5. Project implementation and reporting” of part 1 of the call text for more details.

 

Project Reporting

The principal project leaders of the funded projects will be requested to send an interim report (after 18 months of funding) as well as a final report (after three years of funding) to the Joint Call Secretariat. The reports should highlight the main results and outputs of the projects and any problems that have arisen and how they have been solved. Report templates will be prepared to ensure the comparability of information.

Project teams will be expected to attend and reserve budget for two joint workshops to be held within Europe , one mid-term and one final, as shown in 6. Indicative Timetable.

Additional reporting to the individual national/regional funding institutions may also be necessary depending on national/regional regulations.
