You may officially submit a project for a cluster only when there is a call for projects. But prior to this, you can contact the cluster concerned in order to get your project under way.

What should you do if you wish to submit a project for a cluster ?

1/ Which criteria for my project ?

If you have a project which meets these four criteria :

  • partnership,

  • innovation,

  • critical mass,

  • international visibility.

2/ Which Cluster for my project ?

Visit the websites of the clusters. They will provide you with information on:

  • their main strategic lines

  • their first concrete projects

  • how to express your interest.

3/ Get your project under way with the help of a cluster

The people in charge of the cluster will help you design your project and prepare a convincing presentation. You can also ask the Cluster to help you find partners representing the business, research and training circles.

A schedule must be established, defining the start and the end of the project, and  the expected results during this given period should be identified.

The budget for the project must be evaluated, by indicating the sources of financing (public and private) and mentioning the expected financial support. The impact on employment will also be assessed.

We also invite you to consult the document relating to the guiding principles applying to intellectual property within the framework of research projects (PDF - 130kb).

4/ Submit your project

During the next call for projects, submit your project to the cluster, which will evaluate it and decide to submit it to an international jury. The jury will then assess its value, relevance and validity.
