STORIES
SUCCESS
FTPO had already tried unsuccessfully to apply to the final Twinning call in 2019 under Horizon 2020. However, prior to resubmitting our proposal to the Twinning call in 2022 under Horizon Europe, we asked for advice from the FIT-4-NMP service. They reviewed the evaluation summary report for our old proposal and provided detailed recommendations on how to improve the proposal. We feel this feedback was instrumental in our latest Twinning proposal being selected for funding.
