A requirement of most H2020 calls is that an application is submitted by a consortium of at least three partners/countries (research institutions or for example companies). In addition to using your own network, you may use several online partner-search tools to find consortium partners. Below is a (non-exhaustive) list of available tools. Please note that some of the available tools have not been activated yet for the 2016-2017 Working Programme:
- CORDIS Partner Service
EC database of partner profiles for project collaboration (self-registered profiles, no validation). - Idealist Partner Search
Partner search for ICT and other area’s. - Fit for Health
