How to Submit an EIC Accelerator Proposal to the EU Funding and Tenders Portal: A Step-by-Step Video Guide
Are you looking to submit your EIC Accelerator proposal to the EU’s Funding and Tenders Portal? Our latest video guide walks you through the entire process, making it easier than ever to navigate the complex submission system. Whether you’re new to the platform or just need a quick refresher, this guide will help you understand the key differences between Part A and Part B of the application, ensuring your proposal meets all necessary requirements.
Understanding the EIC Accelerator Proposal Submission Process
The European Innovation Council (EIC) Accelerator is a key funding instrument for startups and small businesses looking to scale their innovations. Submitting a proposal can be daunting, especially when trying to understand the nuances of the portal’s requirements. This video breaks down the process into two main sections: Part A and Part B.
Part A: The Online Form
Part A is an online form that requires you to input a variety of administrative and financial details. This section is crucial because it sets the foundation of your proposal with basic but essential information:
- Company Information: Enter your company’s address, contact details, and legal status. Accurate data entry is vital as this forms the basis of your proposal’s identity.
- Consents and Disclaimers: This part involves giving necessary consents, agreeing to terms and conditions, and accepting various disclaimers set forth by the EU.
- Budget Allocation: Provide a detailed breakdown of your proposed budget. This should include the funding you are requesting, co-funding contributions, and any other financial details that support your proposal.
- Ethics and Compliance: You’ll also need to fill out information regarding ethics, such as data protection, environmental impact, and other compliance-related disclosures.
The video guide will take you through each of these fields step-by-step, ensuring you understand what information is needed and how to input it correctly.
Part B: The Proposal Documents
Part B is where the core of your proposal lies. Unlike Part A, which is mainly form-based, Part B involves uploading the main proposal and all supporting documents. This is your chance to present your project in detail:
- Main Proposal Document: This is the primary document that outlines your project, detailing everything from your innovation’s market potential to your business plan and risk assessment.
- Supporting Materials: Part B is also where you upload all annexes and additional documents that strengthen your proposal. This can include visuals, technical specifications, team CVs, letters of intent from potential partners, and other relevant documents.
- Uploading Instructions: The guide provides a screen recording that shows exactly how to upload these documents. It covers file format requirements, size limitations, and tips for ensuring your uploads are successful.
