As mentioned above, respondents were asked what would have happened to their RTD project if an ‘Integrated Project’ or a ‘Network of Excellence’ had not existed under the 6 th Framework Programme. Those who answered (very) unlikely to the question whether the project would have been submitted through other means, were asked why. Chart 3.8: Main reasons why project would not have been submitted to another source of funding (n=108) – Results in % - Multiple answers possible No other source of funds available 34% Consortium tailormade 67% Other 13% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% No significant differences are noticed between successful and unsuccessful projects, nor between NoE and IP or by priority. Future of the partnership Another question asked to all participants, was their expectation as to the future of their partnership. The different answers proposed were formulated as follows (answers are shortened in the charts below): • The partnership will go on, independently of funding by the EU • The partnership, in its present form, will seek additional funding for additional tasks • The partnership will continue after the project, and might seek new sources of funding • The partnership is likely to continue, but under a different form (with less partners, or with partially other partners) • The partnership has been created for this project and it is not sure it will continue after the project, or if the project funding is not secured • Other 62
Chart 3.9: Expectation for the future of the partnership – (n=275) - Results in % - Multiple answers possible Partnership will go on, independent of EU funding 9 7 Partnership as is will seek additional funding 10 27 Partnership will continue, might seek new funds Partnership likely to continue, but with differences 9 28 38 46 Unsuccessful Successful Partnership created for project, not sure will continue 15 29 Other 7 5 0 10 20 30 40 50 Successful and unsuccessful proposers have answered this question from different perspectives and therefore results need to be interpreted differently. For unsuccessful proposers, the proportion of partnerships that are likely to continue even if under different forms is high. Results show that 57% of consortia created in the context of unsuccessful proposals would continue in one form or another. This is a high additionality effect of the application process. For the successful proposers, the interesting result is that a large group plans to seek additional funds either during or after the project (both more than 25 %). Results on this question also confirm the ‘inflation’ in the consortia for new instruments. 16 % of successful proposers do not expect this consortium to continue after the project is finished and 42 % expect it will continue but at this early stage they already expect it will be under a different form. These two percentages are high. Continuation of the partnership under its present form seems to be higher with NoE, probably due to the “durable integration” requirement, than with IP projects: • 36 % of NoE coordinators expect they will seek additional funding during the project, against 23 % of IP coordinators • 42 % of NoE coordinators expect they will continue with their network after its end (after the end of the funding period) and they will seek additional funding for this, against 25 % of IP coordinators. • Only 1 of 36 NoE coordinator said not to be sure the network would continue, against 16 % of the IP coordinators. 63
