5th German-Korean Call for Proposals for Joint R&D Projects
Deadline for proposal submissions: March 28th 2018
1. Scope
Germany and Korea are announcing a Call for Proposals for joint R&D projects, focusing on developing innovative products and applications in all technological and application areas.
Applicants are expected to develop ready-to-market solutions for products, technology based services or methods which have strong market potential.
The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy of Korea (MOTIE) and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi) will provide access to public funding for joint projects provided by MOTIE and by the BMWi’s ZIM (Central Innovation Programme for SMEs).
MOTIE (Coordinator: Korea Institute for Advancement of Technology - KIAT) and BMWi (Coordinator: AiF Projekt GmbH) will provide all necessary assistance to project partners during project proposal, evaluation and monitoring phase.
KIAT and AiF Projekt GmbH will evaluate the submitted proposals and communicate the results within about 3 months after the call deadline.
2. Call Structure
The call invites partners to present joint proposals for industrial R&D projects until March 28th 2018, according to the following procedures.
2.1 Financing
Eligible project participants from Germany and Korea will finance their costs from the national funding schemes and complementarily from their own resources.
2.2 Minimum requirements
Project results will have to contribute to the development of commercial products, processes and / or technical services. The project proposals have to comply with the following guidelines:
- The partners should include at least one Korean and one German commercial company
- Participation of further research organisations and companies is welcome as additional participants or subcontractors according to each country’s funding regulations.
- Companies and/or research organisations from other countries may also participate. However, these partners will not be funded by MOTIE or BMWi.
- The project should have an obvious advantage and added value resulting from the cooperation between the participants from the two countries (e.g. increased knowledge base, commercial needs, access to R&D infrastructure, new fields of application, etc.).
- Project duration should be within 3 years
The project should demonstrate the contribution of the participants from both countries on an equal base, and the project must be equally significant to all participants. One country cannot represent more than 70% of the project budget/ person months.
Any partner whose cooperative R&D project is consistent with the aforesaid criteria can apply to the present announcement in accordance with the national laws, rules, regulations and procedures in effect.
2.3 Submission
Between the opening of the Call on December 4, 2017 and the Call Deadline on March 28th 2018 all participants file one short common proposal in English language, legally signed by all organisations participating in the project and a draft consortium agreement (not yet signed) that regulates the terms of cooperation between all partners in English language.
Project results will have to contribute to the development of commercial products, processes and / or technical services. The project proposals have to comply with the following guidelines:
Financing
This is a promotional call for project ideas: there is no specific budget dedicated to this. The funding comes from the national programmes in Eurostars. Full proposals submitted will compete against any other proposal submitted within the Eurostars programme.
Both Korea and The Netherlands will fund its eligible participants within the Eurostars framework, which means that funding conditions and eligibility criteria may vary.
The minimum requirements for the agreement are:
- Naming of all project partners
- Description of the project aims and differentiation of the subprojects of the partners including their working plans with person months (for this the common application proposals can be declared as part of the agreement)
- A clause that provides for both partners to be informed if third parties are involved in the project
- Regulation of intellectual property rights
- Basic regulation of joint commercialization and apportioning of benefits
- If research organisations are involved, a passage has to be included that allows them to publish their own results without duty to obtain consent from the other partners
The proposal form is available on: http://www.zim-bmwi.de/internationale-fue-kooperationen/bilaterale-ausschreibungen
The common proposal and the draft consortium agreement have to be sent electronically to gtshim@kiat.or.kr / jhshim@kiat.or.kr and c.fichtner@aif-projekt-gmbh.de. All Korean participants are also required to upload all documents via a dedicated online system (http://k-pass.kr).
At the same time, those project partners who want to apply for funding within this call, file a national application according to the respective rules (see below).
