Management of European R&D Projects

European projectsEurescom has two decades of experience in managing European R&D projects, both public and private. This includes collaboration projects under the European Framework Programmes from FP5 to Horizon 2020 as well as Eurescom's own programme for telecoms network operators and service providers.

By default, we provide our project management support services as sub-contractor to the project coordinator. In cases of high strategic interest, we also consider coordinating a project, provided our effort is fully covered.

Benefits of using our services

Eurescom’s project management services enable project coordinators to focus on managing the general direction and the technological innovation aspects of the project instead of administrative details. The major part of the administrative work on micro-management level would be performed by experienced personnel at Eurescom. Thus, you can save time to focus on the contents of your project.

Under the EU's Horizon 2020 programme, our sub-contracted project management support services can be 100 percent financed by the EC contribution, provided you have included an explanation and a budget figure for the subcontracting in your project proposal.

Our project management support services are complemented by EuresTools®, our modular suite of Cloud-based project management tools.

Please contact us via e-mail at services(at)eurescom.eu to discuss which of our project management services you need.
