Communicating H2020 projects
q Increased importance (GA article 38.1)
q Promote your project and its results beyond the projects own community, reach out to society
q Communicate your research in a way that is understood by non-specialist, e.g. the media and the public
q Work package (in proposal), Communication Plan (start of project)
q Inform EC/ Agency in advance of communication activities expected to have a major media impact

CommunicationStrategic and targeted measures for promoting the action itself and its results to a multitude of audiences, including the media and the public. *

Disseminating H2020 projects
q Transfer of knowledge and results to the ones that can bestmake use of it
q Maximizes the impact of research, enabling the value of resultsto be potentially wider than the original focus
q Open Accessq to publications (underlying principle in H2020)q to data (pilot)
ü Essential element of all good research practiceü Prevents results becoming sticky and effectively lostü Strengthens and promotes the profile of the organisation
Dissemination
The public disclosure of the results by any appropriate means, including by scientific publications in any medium.*
* Shortened from http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/portal/desktop/en/support/reference_terms.html

Communication DisseminationAbout the project and results
About results only
Multiple audiences Beyond the project's own community (include the media and the public)
Audiences that may use the results in their own worke.g. peers (scientific or the project's own community), industry and other commercial actors, professional organisations, policymakers
Inform and reach out to society, show the benefits of research
Enable use and uptake ofresults

Exploitation in proposals
Considered in all sections of a project proposal
• Chapter 1 "Excellence"• SMART objectives: consistent with expected exploitation & impact
• Situation of project: 'idea to application', 'lab to market', TRL
• Ambition: beyond state-of-art; i.a. the innovation potential e.g. new products, services or business models, reference to available product/services
• Chapter 2 “Expected Impacts"• Contribution of project to:
• Expected impacts mentioned in the WP / topic• Substantial impacts not mentioned, i.e. new market opportunities, growth of
company; barriers (e.g. financing follow-up)
• Measures to maximise impact (explanations in template)• Draft Plan for the dissemination and exploitation of the project's results:
who, where, what, how, when, for whom, by which means, … depending on type of results; i.e. exploitation paths and follow-up of project during & after project; to be translated in corresponding 'Consortium Agreement'; appropriate consortium structure (also chapter 3.3)
Exploitation (I) Proposal
Exploitation1
The utilisation of results – up to four years after the action:• in further research activities other than those covered by the
action concerned, or • in developing, creating and marketing a product or process, or • in creating and providing a service, or in standardisation activities.
Terminology "Exploitation"
Ø Make use of the results; recognising exploitable results and theirstakeholders
Ø Concretise the value and impact of the R&I activity for societalchallenges
ü Can be commercial, societal, political, or for improving public knowledge andaction
ü Project partners can exploit results themselves, or facilitate exploitation byothers (e.g. through making results available under open licenses)
