The UK-Ireland Partner Roadshow Gathered over 100 Participants

16th July 2019

Upcoming important dates and UKI regional innovation hub Support links included

During the Partner Roadshow, the regional innovation hub staff presented the EIT Health Business Plan 2019 Call for Proposals to all UK-Ireland partners, answered questions from partners, and collected preliminary proposal ideas ahead of the BP2019 Call deadline on 9 April 2018.

In one week, across five different locations, the Partner Roadshow gathered over 100 participants from 13 of all 14 UK-Ireland-based EIT Health partner organisations.

The Roadshow was also an occasion to tackle the 2018 Innovative Education Call closing on 8 March, as well the resources that the regional innovation hub can offer to EIT Health partners in its region. You can find a summary of this in the Partner Roadshow Slideshow.

The team from the Project Management Office joined the regional innovation hub and met UK-Ireland-based partners in Dublin and London. At both sessions, the PMO staff delivered a thorough presentation regarding applications, project implementation, and cost reporting. Partners were also able to ask further questions regarding BP2019 submissions and BP2018 implementation in one-to-one with the project managers from the PMO.

During the Roadshow, the UK-Ireland regional innovation hub staff reminded partners of the upcoming important dates and EIT Health events which will serve to guide partners through their application process. Please find them summarised below:
