Our Role in Your EU Proposal

Strengthening the Critical Impact & Exploitation Sections

We partner with consortia to develop the most compelling parts of the proposal: proving the societal value and creating a clear path for results to be used beyond the project’s life.

  • Expert Contribution: We lead or co-develop the Impact & Exploitation sections, crafting a credible narrative that directly links your project’s outcomes to EU policy goals (Green Deal, SDGs). Our Intelligent Systems Lab provides the technical backbone for this, creating data-driven forecasts, simulations, and visualizations that quantitatively substantiate your project’s potential impact.
  • SSH Integration Strategy: We design and articulate how Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) are seamlessly woven throughout the project to ensure societal readiness, ethical soundness, and market acceptance.
  • Impact Pathway Development: We map the journey from research activities to tangible societal, economic, and policy impacts. Tools from our Intelligent Systems Lab, such as system dynamics models, allow us to create and validate these pathways, demonstrating a logical and convincing theory of change.
  • Exploitation & Business Plan Drafting: We develop the initial exploitation strategy. Here, our Intelligent Systems Lab contributes by building functional prototypes, demonstrators, or simulators that serve as powerful, tangible evidence of exploitable results, making your proposal far more competitive.
  • Custom Algorithm & Software Development: We design and build the core intelligence for your project. This includes creating bespoke machine learning models, AI-powered analysis tools, and specialized simulators for a wide range of applications—from modeling environmental systems and optimizing energy grids to accelerating pharmaceutical research, predicting agricultural yields, and understanding complex social dynamics.
