How to write a succesful project proposal
Hai difficoltà ad ottenere finanziamenti per i tuoi progetti?
Navigare nel complesso mondo dei bandi di finanziamento può essere una sfida, e spesso una buona idea da sola non basta. Scrivere una proposta efficace richiede selezionare lo strumento di finanziamento giusto, così come strategia, chiarezza e capacità di rispondere in modo preciso alle aspettative dei valutatori.
Il nostro Corso di Proposal Writing, condotto dai Grant Manager di Innovation Acta, è progettato per fornirti gli strumenti giusti per trasformare la tua idea in un progetto competitivo e finanziabile. Attraverso un approccio didattico pratico, basato sull’esperienza diretta e casi reali, acquisirai tecniche, strategie e suggerimenti concreti per aumentare le tue possibilità di successo. Durante il corso sono previste esercitazioni individuali e in gruppo.
Il corso di formazione immersivo di due giorni si concentra sulla scrittura delle proposte per Horizon Europe. Le giornate di formazione si svolgono in presenza.
Quali temi affronterai?
- Approccio Strategico a Horizon Europe: Comprendi la visione e gli obiettivi di Horizon Europe per sviluppare proposte vincenti;
- Strumenti di Progettazione: Analizza gli strumenti e le risorse disponibili per costruire una proposta solida e ben strutturata;
- Preparazione alla Scrittura delle Proposte: Scopri come affrontare al meglio la scrittura delle tue proposte, passo dopo passo;
- Dalla Visione alla Proposta Progettuale: Impara a trasformare un’idea innovativa in una proposta coerente e vincente.
Cosa imparerai?
- Come individuare il bando di finanziamento più adatto alla tua idea progettuale;
- Strategie efficaci per scrivere proposte di successo;
- Lezioni apprese da esperienze reali;
- Esercitazioni pratiche e quiz per applicare le best practices;
- Suggerimenti per aumentare la probabilità di successo delle domande di finanziamento.
A chi è rivolto?
- Ricercatori, accademici e grant writer;
- Startup, PMI e innovatori alla ricerca di fondi;
- Organizzazioni no-profit e istituzioni.
Migliora la qualità delle tue proposte e ottieni i fondi necessari per realizzare i tuoi progetti!
Growing Stronger, Delivering Better
We’re excited to welcome new medical writers who bring top-notch expertise and sharp review skills to our proposals.

EU4Health
The EU4Health Programme is the EU’s dedicated health funding instrument for 2021–2027, created to strengthen Europe’s resilience to health crises and improve public health across member states. It supports actions that enhance disease prevention, reinforce health systems, improve access to medicines and medical devices, and boost cooperation at EU level. Through targeted funding, EU4Health aims to build a healthier, more prepared, and more equitable Europe.
The EU4Health Programme is managed by DG SANTE (Europen Commission).
Open Calls
3 open calls for proposals, collectively aiming to advance innovative medical countermeasures against chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear threats by supporting new medicinal products, next-generation reusable protective equipment, and improved detection and diagnostic technologies.
MSCA Doctoral Networks
The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) support excellent research training, skills development, and international mobility for researchers at all career stages. Trough its main calls—Doctoral Networks, Postdoctoral Fellowships, Staff Exchanges, COFUND, and MSCA and Citizens—the programme strengthens Europe’s research landscape by fostering international collaboration, interdisciplinary learning, and the growth of highly skilled, globally connected researchers.
Doctoral Networks are a key component, funding international, interdisciplinary, and intersectoral doctoral programmes. They help institutions attract top talent, provide high-quality supervision, and equip PhD candidates with advanced scientific and transferable skills, preparing them for successful careers within and beyond academia.

ERC - European Research Council
The European Research Council (ERC) funds ground-breaking research driven by scientific excellence. Its highly competitive grants support individual researchers and their teams to pursue ambitious, curiosity-driven ideas with the potential to transform their fields. Open to all disciplines, the ERC empowers outstanding talent to push the frontiers of knowledge in Europe.
EIC - European Innovation Council
EIC Pathfinder is part of the European Innovation Council (EIC), designed to fund early-stage, high-risk / high-gain research that can pave the way to breakthrough technologies.
Within Pathfinder, the Open call is the “bottom-up” strand: it welcomes proposals in any field of science, technology or application, without predefined thematic priorities.
Open Calls
The 2026 Challenges Call includes three cutting-edge thematic strands that seek to push the frontiers of science and enable transformative technology development:
- II.2.1 Advanced Materials for Miniaturised Energy Harvesting Systems — This topic invites proposals to develop novel materials and device architectures that can efficiently scavenge ambient energy at microscale. The ambition is to enable self-powered miniaturised systems (e.g. IoT devices, sensors, wearable electronics) through breakthroughs in material properties, integration strategies, and energy conversion techniques.
- II.2.2 Biotechnology for Healthy Ageing — This theme focuses on leveraging biotechnology, bioengineering and life-science innovations to promote longer, healthier lifespans. It aims to address biological aging processes, preventative diagnostics, regenerative therapies, and interventions that maintain functional resilience over time.
- II.2.3 DeepRAP: Deep Reasoning, Abstraction & Planning towards Trustworthy Cognitive AI Systems — Under this call, the goal is to advance the methodological foundations of AI by combining deep learning with symbolic reasoning, abstraction, planning and verification. The ambition is to build more trustworthy, interpretable, and robust cognitive systems that can operate reliably in complex, uncertain environments.
EIC Pathfinder targets work in the earliest Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs), typically TRL 1 to TRL 4 — i.e. from basic research up to proof-of-concept / lab validation.
