My best wishes for 2019 under the most peculiar place. Sun, beach, half meter snow in Greece


One meter snow next to the beach in Greece with sun? Yes, it is possible. What is also possible is to give a short introduction to the CRITERIA formula for impressing the evaluators.
The CRITERIA formula is what all the champions in EU funds and Horizon 2020 apply with commitment and consistency! It consists of the following and it actually works:
C. Citations
R. Resources
I: Inspiring/Interesting

T: Tangible

E: Executive Summary/Abstract
R: Restructuring
I: Illustrations
A: Aesthetics

For exploring further the C.R.I.T.E.R.I.A. formula, you can now register in my Funding Expert Accelerator Programme  that in addition to have exclusive access  every month to unique in-depth trainings on EU funds that I deliver nowhere else but only in this programme, you can also have  an one-to-one live session with me remotely where I can guide you specifically on any challenges you are facing (e.g. your strong and weak points and how to work for becoming a great funding expert, which funding programmes can support your idea or your organisation’s mission, how to get involved in proposals as partner, how to deal with specific issues in regards to a grant application or a funded project that you are involved, etc.) You set the agenda for our discussion and coaching session according to your own needs.
