Horizon Result Booster: Check PeneloPe’s Materials

PeneloPe together with the H2020 projects OPTIMAI and I4Q have submitted and won an application to enjoy the benefits of the Horizon Results Booster Services provided by the European Commission. The services started on April 2023 until September 2023.

The collaboration between OPTIMAI, I4Q and PeneloPe is done through the 4ZDM Cluster. This is a European initiative around the Factories of the Future Zero Defect Manufacturing priority which aims to promote the adoption of zero-defect production and quality control systems by industry.

The Horizon Results Booster (HRB) is an initiative of the European Commission which aims to bring a continual stream of innovation to the market and maximise the impact of public funded research within the EU. The aim of the D&E Booster is to strengthen the capacity of projects of disseminating and exploiting their research results.

The service awarded was service 1 “Portfolio Dissemination & Exploitation Strategy” Modules A “Identifying and creating the portfolio of R&I project results” and B “Helping projects from the portfolio to design and execute a portfolio dissemination plan”.

Within the booster several actions were done: a factsheet, a video and a policy brief were created. Also, consortium partners had access to online trainings in dissemination. Do you want to see the results? Check below!
