Mistakes that cost you the money

  • Applying without partners in neighbourhoods of different countries. Consequence: The project does not meet the call's requirements.
  • Leaving out social sciences and humanities expertise. Consequence: A stated requirement of the call is missing.
  • Forgetting the budget share for the New European Bauhaus hub. Consequence: The proposal does not follow the call.
  • Including a partner from an excluded country or under EU restrictive measures. Consequence: That entity cannot take part.
  • Putting a proposal consultant's fee in the budget. Consequence: The cost is not accepted.

We'll help you with the application

We prepare free of charge the documents about our products: technical and project description, a quote split by the call's cost items, timing and data sheets to attach. For questions about the call, Horizon Europe National Contact Points (Funding & Tenders Portal), the public help desk for applicants, guides you.

For this call and your type of organisation we do not yet have a partner consultant who prepares the application.

In European calls a consultant's fee cannot be put in the project budget: it is paid with your own funds.

If your project includes the usual neXt solutions, you can buy them from us, with a quote split by the cost items of the call.
