R&D collaborative projects
The "R&D collaborative project" special approval by the cluster is necessary to apply for certain public funds (OSEO, FUI, ANR).
To be eligible for the "R&D collaborative project" mention, a project must fill the three following criteria, in addition to the general terms and conditions of approval:
- to associate a company and at least one of the following research partners: public or private laboratory, university or college, organization specializing in technology transfers;
- to be likely to develop the activity of the companies involved, or help create new companies;
- to describe the R&D tasks of each partner, and the means assigned to their completion.
The examination of the special approval applications is more specifically based on the following criteria:
- contribution of the project to the "State of the art";
- description of the research tasks considered;
- composition of the consortium and respective contribution of the partners;
- project budget and financial aide requested.
The Cluster offers methodological and technical help to prepare applications for public funds, in particular those of the Fonds Unique Interminist©riel (FUI).
This support fund, shared between the 71 approved French competitiveness clusters, contributes to the financing of collaborative research projects associating companies and research laboratories.
A guide of the "R&D collaborative projects", standard consortium agreement documents and batch forms describing the R&D tasks are available from our staff.
