Funding for Public-Private Research Projects: Eligibility Analysis and Application Preparation

The Capacity Building program, led by the University of Montpellier’s University Innovation Hub, offers targeted training in innovation and research commercialization. Through thematic modules led by experts, it helps professionals involved in innovative projects develop their skills.

On June 2, Module 3 of the “Public-Private Research Project Funding” course will focus on analyzing eligibility and compiling the administrative application package. It is intended for staff members who wish to ensure the admissibility of applications, understand the expectations of funding agencies, and effectively support teams in preparing their applications.

This session will cover the following topics:

• identifying the eligibility criteria commonly found in public-private funding programs (ANR, Horizon Europe, RAPID, Bpifrance, etc.);
• the evaluation of the technical and administrative documents required for a public-private partnership application;
• key considerations for ensuring the project’s eligibility (letters of support, attachments, consistency between the budget and deliverables);
• Conducting a feasibility self-assessment to help an entrepreneur or team decide whether to file a patent application.
