Coordination of space NCPs as a means to optimise services

Activity Code: SPA-2007-3.2-01
Coordinator:German Aerospace Center (DLR)

Abstract:

With the introduction of FP7 the topic "Space" gained even more importance than in the FPs before. Most EU Member States and Associated Countries and even some Third Countries have set up NCPs for Space; some are already experienced, some are quite new in Space and in dealing with the FP in general. Within the proposed project therefore a strong network of Space NCPs shall be create to identify and exchange good practice, elaborate and conduct training courses for the NCP staff, gather and provide up-to-date information on Space and neighboring topics and develop common concepts to raise awareness for the FP7 Space Programme and the Space NCPs. Thus a more balanced high quality NCP service will be ensured for the benefit of new and experienced FP7 applicants.
