  2. FP7: Crossing-borders Research NCP Networks: Collaboration Platforms providing for full and easy access to the tools for successful participation ResPotNet: Research Potential NCP Network Net4Society; SSH NCP Network Trans-national Cooperation among Research Potential NCPs

  3. The ResPotNet Project: Research Development in Convergence Regions Research Potential: Programme targeted to less developed regions (convergence/outermost regions) High funding for research infrastructures, human capital, networking Synergies with Structural Funds for regional development Synergies with Research programmes for integration in the ERA Exploiting results for the socio-economic cohesion ResPotNet: Promoting cooperation between less/more advanced regions Supporting EU cohesion in research Trans-national Cooperation among Research Potential NCPs

  4. Trans-national Cooperation among Research Potential NCPs ResPotNet: Who We Are • 16 European partners • Coordinator: National Documentation Centre,Greece • Covering all countries and regions Duration: 2008-2011

  5. Trans-national Cooperation among Research Potential NCPs • ResPotNet: Who We target • Regions where capita gross domestic product (GDP) is less than 75 % of the average GDP of the EU-25 • International Cooperation countries for specific calls • Advanced regions to support the coherent EU development

  6. Trans-national Cooperation among Research Potential NCPs ResPotNet Network: What We Offer Networking Support - Convergence/Advanced matching : • Partner Search Facilitator • Database: organizations in convergence region • Database: “mentors” in advanced regions Promotion of European collaboration: • Promotion in European events, publications,etc. • Dissemination of research results, best practice, success tips ResPotNet: The European Network for the Research Potential programme, Capacities, FP7

  7. Trans-national Cooperation among Research Potential NCPs ResPotNet Network: What We Offer Comprehensive information: • Website (www.respotnet.eu ) • E-newsletter • FAQs, success stories, etc. Consulting for proposals: • Efficient problem-solving, successful examples, signposting, etc. • Identification of complementary funding from other EU policies ResPotNet: The European Network for the Research Potential programme, Capacities, FP7

  8. Trans-national Cooperation among Research Potential NCPs • Research Potential Success Stories • NANOHOST Project in Athens • Coordinator: National Hellenic Research Foundation, Theoretical and Physical Chemistry Institute • Topic: Carbon nanohorn-based hybrid materials for energy conversion • Funding:1.52 million for 3 years • Collaborations: Tampere University of Technology, Sussex University, • University of London, Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Erlangen University, • Karlsruhe University, Max-Plank Institute, University of Wuppertal, • Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, ISIS Facility Info: Dr N. Tagmatarchistagmatar@eie.grwww.nanohost.gr ResPotNet: The European Network for the Research Potential programme, Capacities, FP7

  9. Trans-national Cooperation among Research Potential NCPs • Research Potential Success Stories ProSense Project for West Balkan Cooperation • Coordinator: Ericsson Ireland Research Centre-EIRC • Topic: Wireless Sensor Networking Research and Researchers: Towards Pervasive Networking of West Balkan Countries and the EU • Funding:0.9 million for 3 years • Collaborations: Research Academic Computer Technology Institute (CTI)-GR, Ss. Cyril and Methodius University Skopje, INRIA-FR, Jozef Stefan Institute-SI, University of Belgrade -RS, University of Birmingham-UK, Institute of Telecommunications, Warsaw University of Technology-PL Info: Dr Srdjan Krco www.prosense-project.eu ResPotNet: The European Network for the Research Potential programme, Capacities, FP7

  10. Trans-national Cooperation among Research Potential NCPs The ResPotNet Network | How to Contact Us National Documentation CentreGeorgia Tzenou| e-mail: tzenou@ekt.gr Website |http://www.respotnet.eu ResPotNet: The European Network for the Research Potential programme, Capacities, FP7

  11. net4societyis a network of National Contact Points for Socio – economic Sciences and Humanities (SSH) in the European Commission’s 7th Framework Programme net4societyis a learning network – by reaching out across borders, each SSH NCP will gain full and easy access to all the essential tools of the trade: information sources, training, workshops and good practice

  12. What can we offer to researchers? • Brokerage events • Partner search service • Database of SSH organisations • “Opportunities” – funding opportunities in other thematic areas • Website - the researchers can find relevant links to SSH services, key SSH documents, the NCPs of all partner countries • AND: a functional network

  13. What can we offer to the stakeholders? • Opportunities of networking • Promote national SSH communities through the research directory • Help researchers to collaborate at an international level, and to find international partners through the partner search service and brokerage events • Who are the stakeholders? • Ministry departments • Policy actors • Union trade representatives • Industry associations

  14. Website www.NET4SOCIETY.eu A web platform dedicated to communication, discussion and documentation on SSH
