Call
Detailed Call Description
Proposers may wish to foresee specialised services covering the respective thematic area, drawing on the expertise of the predecessor network. At the same time, proposers must closely collaborate with the proposals in the two other thematic areas of the cluster, to ensure the cohesion of the services in the three thematic areas of Digital, Industry and Space, with a single entry point and common visual identity. Proposers should also share good practices across thematic areas; and enhance opportunities for collaboration across the cluster. A dedicated work package should be developed to ensure these synergies. Τhe proposal should attract new types of player to the cluster, for instance social innovation players, makers and youth associations. Appropriate expertise from social sciences and humanities (SSH) should be included.
Special attention should be given to enhancing the competence of NCPs, including helping less experienced NCPs rapidly acquire the know-how built up in other countries.
