HEARING OBJECTIVE:
The purpose of the hearing is to make a final decision regarding the selection of your proposal to be included in the 2019 Business Plan. The hearings provide you and your consortium an opportunity to present your proposal to an external Evaluation Board and to receive valuable feedback on your activity.
EVALUATION PROCESS:
Each hearing will be evaluated based on the key areas highlighted in the call document. Hearings will be face-to-face and take place in Munich, to allow the experts to meet with the teams in-person. For proposals in Innovation and Campus, a maximum of four participants is allowed. For Accelerator, a maximum of three participants is allowed. Participation of the project’s leader is mandatory. The score for the selection of proposals will be obtained in the remote evaluations and in the hearings. The final score will be calculated based on 25% of the remote evaluation score + 75% of the face-to-face hearing score.
HEARING DURATION
The hearing itself will be for a maximum of 65 minutes:
- 20 minutes maximum for a presentation
- 45 minutes for an open question and answer session by the Evaluation Board.
HEARING PRESENTATION DETAILS
During the hearing you will be provided a maximum of 20 minutes to present a PowerPoint presentation covering the key areas highlighted in the call document. We also provide detailed hearings guidelines to support your hearing preparation.
