European Research and Innovation Days: 23-24 June 2021

February 18, 2021

One of the few good things we learnt from the pandemic is that borders don’t exist. And that strong internet connections do. Yes, events are better in person. Nothing can replace some good old school networking, exchanging business cards, chit chat about the last panel talk you heard. But hey, it’s also pretty fascinating that… » read more

Europa Media

Our aim is to share our experience regarding the EU funding system and participation in EU-funded projects

Welcome to Europa Media’s BlogActiv page! Via this blog, we are aiming to share our experience regarding the EU funding system and participation in EU-funded projects. We will be providing up-to-date information on EU programmes and a practical insight to EC projects in research, technological development and innovation fields.

Europa Media was founded in 2003 by two individuals who wanted to share their experience gained in proposal development and project management under EU programmes with other interested parties. The EU funding system is complex and the competition to get a project financed by the EU is tough. Specific knowledge, well-established networks and certain skills are needed to successfully get involved in these competitive projects.

Since its establishment in 2003, Europa Media has strived to provide and present dispersed and highly technical information on EU policies, funding opportunities and programmes in a streamlined and simplified way to potential stakeholders in Europe and worldwide. To this aim, we have developed, launched and publicised a variety of information sources and tools including web platforms, publications and events. Our training courses and workshops on EU funding, EC project development and management has reached over 5,000 people throughout Europe and beyond.
