Differences: consortium own contribution' BBI JU is a public-private partnership so we need contributions from both the public (EU) and private (project beneficiaries, incl. BIC members) side Consortium own contribution : 1 or more of the following 3 elements: Financial contributions ( In cash ) in kind contributions Additional investments 20

BBI JU budget 975 M 975 M + 1755 M = TOTAL 3705 M (about 75% from BIC) Call for Proposals (in cash and in kind) Additional Investments 21

Types of contributions In cash / financial contributions = money ( ) In kind = other (than monetary), non-funded contributions to a project, e.g.: Human resources: people working on project, without (asking for) funding of their costs Other resources: consumables, machines, buildings, equipment,... Additional investments : resources NOT part of a project (budget)......but that help to maximise the impact of the project OR of the BBI JU programme 22

Annual topic text creation Strategic level: SIRA Strategic Innovation and Research Agenda guiding document developed by BIC Operational Level Annual Work Plan Drafting Approval Supporting + Scientific Committee + States Representatives Group Call for proposals (RIAs, IAs, CSAs) Publication & Implementation

1. Annual topic text creation Further refining Longlist to shortlist Shortlisted topic texts are continuously updated so every word counts How to write a good proposal? Copy/paste the topic text Divide it in different (grouped) sentences Does your proposal idea tick all the boxes? What / who (expertise) are you missing? 59

2. Evaluation (sub)criteria Excellence Impact Impact Impact Implementation 60

2. Evaluation (sub)criteria Different types of evaluation subcriteria Standard Horizon 2020 subcriteria BBI JU-specific subcriteria Differences between types of action Coordination & Support Actions (CSAs) Research & Innovation Actions (RIAs) Innovation Actions (IAs) DEMOs Flagships 61

Excellence: WHAT? Excellence: WHAT? 62

H2020 subcriteria (RIAs and IAs) Extent that proposed work is beyond the state of the art, and demonstrates innovation potential. What is the state of the art (SOTA)? What s the benchmark?...and how does your proposal go beyond the SOTA? Tips: clearly describe the (starting and end) TRLs e.g. via a table (left: SOTA + start TRL; right: envisaged end TRL) 63

BBI JU-specific subcriterion (IAs) Coverage of the whole value chain (IAs are close to market => this subcriterion checks that your idea take into account biomass, processing and end products & markets) 64

Impact: SO WHAT? Excellence: WHAT? Impact: SO WHAT? 65

H2020 subcriteria (all actions) Outputs of the project vs. the expected impacts mentioned in the work plan Are all expected impacts listed in the topic text dealt with in your proposal......in a qualitative AND quantitative manner? Often link with BBI JU KPIs More info on BBI JU KPIs: see SIRA SIRA is more than a theoretical text 66

H2020 subcriteria (all actions) Exploitation, dissemination and communication of project results (including IPR and - where relevant - research data management) Dissemination & exploitation: more than an eligibility criterion; this is also evaluated by experts Tips: Also provide quantative data (how many conferences, publications, target audiences,...) => be specific, avoid generic diss./comm./expl. plans Include relevant (also public) deliverables Explicitly describe IPR (Intellectual Property Rights) management every word counts 67

BBI JU subcriteria (RIAs and IAs) Extent to which the proposed consortium own contribution, including additional investments, will help maximising the impact of the action Clearly describe if and how much own contribution ( in kind, in cash and/or additional investments ) is included in the proposal......and explain how this will maximise the impact of the action Don t just list the amounts, also explain them Where to explain this? See: FAQ for Applicants Guide for Applicants 68

Implementation: HOW? Excellence: WHAT? Impact: SO WHAT? Implementation: HOW? 69

Significance of Implementation Call 2017 case Successful proposals (invited to GAP) Proposals on reserve list (= passing all thresholds) Proposals not passing 1 threshold(s) Excellence 4.85 4.27 2.86 Impact 4.85 4.24 3.39 Implementation 4.91 4.1 3.12 Biggest difference to 5 in implementation 70

H2020 subcriteria (all actions) Allocation of tasks, ensuring that all participants have a valid role and adequate resources Football analogy: Sometimes, a certain amount of home-grown players is required......but they re only part of the team pro forma; they seldom play. Tip: convince expert-evaluators that you don t have token consortium members, e.g. via resource allocation (money talks...) 71

H2020 subcriteria (all actions) Management structures and procedures, including risk and innovation management. Consortium of 5 or 20 members: different management (structures) needed Innovative management techniques are not necessary; it needs to work! Tips: explicitly mention / describe risk and innovation management... (every word counts)...and include real (not token) risks and mitigation measures 72

BBI JU-specific subcriteria (IAs) Soundness of the business case and business plan Why? IAs are close to market => business case and business plan are needed How? See Guide for Applicants and proposal template (bullet points describing business case & plan requirements) FAQ: how much info is needed? (Further) details can be provided in part B sections 4-5 (= not included in 70-page limit) (Only) for Flagships: additional info via hearings 73

BBI JU-specific subcriteria (IAs) Readiness of the technology Tip (bis): clearly indicate the start and end TRLs In particular, for flagships applicants must demonstrate that by the time of the submission of their application they have been operating relative demonstration scale plants at a significant production capacity (justification shall be provided in the proposal). 74

Proposal template Main message of Call 2017 BBI JU info day: «Write for an evaluator» Make the life of the expert-evaluators as simple as possible by ensuring that they can find the right information to evaluate all evaluation subcriteria as quickly and efficiently as possible How? By using the proposal template 77

3. Proposal template How to write a good proposal? Use the proposal structure found in the Participant Portal / BBI JU Guide for Applicants Stick to part B - section 1-3 page limits (50 for CSAs, 70 for RIAs and IAs) For IAs: put business case/plan info in Part B - section 4-5 (no page limits) Every word counts (what you write, and where you (should) write it) 78
