France – Israeli Call for Joint R&D Projects

Deadline: 20-Feb-23

Eureka has announced France – Israeli call for Joint R&D projects focussing on developing innovative solutions in all technological and application areas.

This project call is for R&D projects focussing on developing innovative solutions in all technological and application areas.

Scope
  • Your project should:
    • Contribute to the development of commercial products, applications and / or technology-based services.
Funding Information
France
  • Eligible beneficiaries: French companies with up to 2,000 fulltime equivalents (FTEs)
  • Eligible costs: Industrial research and experimental development (industrialisation and commercialisation costs are not eligible)
  • Funding: Financial support may be provided to eligible French companies in support of industrial research or technological development activities. Eligible French partners can be funded through an ADI (Aide pour le Développement de l’Innovation), i.e., through a reimbursable advance or an R&D loan of up to 3 million euro within the limit of own equity.
  • NB: If the company is considered a deeptech company, funding could be different.
  • French partners may also participate in a collaborative project on a self-funding basis.
  • Any payment is subject to a signed consortium agreement.
Israel
  • An Israeli R&D performing company which initiates a single or multi-year programme that will provide
  • know-how, processes or methods for the manufacture of a new product, application, technology-based service or process is eligible to apply. The product must have a sizeable potential for export sales.
  • Research institutes or other participants may apply as a subcontractor to a company.
  • The support is in the form of a conditional grant amounting generally up to 50% (+ regional incentives for companies located in “development zone”) of the eligible R&D budget.

Eligibility Criteria
  • Eureka has limited eligibility criteria for organisations participating in a Network projects consortium:
    • Your project idea must represent international cooperation in the form of a specific project.
    • The project must be directed at researching or developing an innovative product, process or service with the goal of commercialisation.
    • The project must have a civilian purpose.
    • Your consortium must include at least two independent legal entities from a minimum of two Eureka countries.
    • No single organisation or country can be responsible for more than 70% of the project budget.
Evaluation Criteria
  • Your project application will be reviewed according to their Network projects evaluation methodology.
  • Impact
    • Is the market properly addressed (i.e. size, access and risks)?
    • Is the value creation properly addressed (i.e. employment opportunities and environmental and societal benefits)?
    • What are the competitive advantages of your project (i.e. strategic importance, enhanced capabilities and visibility)?
    • Are your commercialisation plans clear and realistic (i.e. return on investment, geographical and sectoral impact)?
  • Excellence
    • What is the degree of innovation? (i.e. is the proposed product, process or service state-of-the-art? Is there sufficient technological maturity and risk)?
    • How is the new knowledge going to be used?
    • Is your project scientifically and technically challenging for consortium partners?
    • Is the technical achievability and risk properly addressed?
  • Quality and efficiency of implementation
    • What is the quality of your consortium (i.e. balance of the partnership and technological, managerial and financial capabilities of each partner)?
    • Is there added value through international cooperation?
    • Is your project management and planning realistic and clearly defined (i.e. methodology, planning approach, milestones and deliverables)?
    • Is your cost structure reasonable (i.e. costs and financial commitment for each consortium partner)?
  • Overall perception
    • Experts will list three positive and negative points to your application and finally state whether they recommend your project for public investment.
    • Your national funding body may carry out a further evaluation (performed by the national project coordinator and technical experts) according to national rules before allocating funds to successful applicants.
