Horizon 2020, the European program of R&D, is an excellent
financing way for the universities, research centers, companies
and SME: In general for the 100% of direct costs for all types of entities
and for the 70% in the case of a company which is at the stage of the
innovation; 25% of the direct costs are considered as indirect. Before
such conditions, it is strongly recommended for the Spanish entities to
participate. But the participation leads to compete with the best and
most of the time with consortium activities (research groups,
companies, users). Thus, the entities that pretend to participate have to
anticipate and familiarize themselves to the new exigencies and
priorities H2020, in order to gain competitiveness before such a number
of projects that are presented.
