Our Services

Project Management (post-award)

The Project Manager organises overall communications among the consortium partners, establishes the reporting lines to the European Commission, tracks the budget, manages the risk register, and ensures that research and financial reports are created and delivered according to the schedule and to the highest standards as required by the European Commission.

Dissemination and Communication

The Project Manager works closely with the UCC Principal Investigator and the consortium research leaders to create and implement a plan for disseminating results of the research through research networks and the academic literature. This includes establishing a project website and organising research meetings and conferences during the period of the award.  

The European Commission and other funding agencies are always concerned to communicate their work to the general public. The Project Manager takes responsibility for establishing a comprehensive communications programme involving a range of channels (website, press, social media, outreach events, etc.) to make the public aware of the research being carried out and its impact on society.

EIC Project Management for SMEs

The European Innovation Council (EIC) offers grants through its Accelerator Pilot programme to high-risk, high-potential small and medium enterprises to enable them to undertake innovation and commercialisation activities bringing new, potentially disruptive, products, services and business models to market. UCC Academy offers companies successful in gaining these awards a project management service similar to that for UCC Principal Investigators coordinating EU-funded projects.
