For research consortia

Impact, dissemination and exploitation for research projects

JCP helps research and innovation teams connect project results with the organisations that can use them. We contribute market and user evidence before submission, structured communication and dissemination during the project, and practical routes to adoption, licensing, pilots and follow-up collaboration.

Services by project phase

Before submission, during the project, towards uptake

Fees are agreed in writing before work begins. Proposal-development consultancy is not charged to a future grant.

Phase 1 · Before submission

Impact evidence sprint

For coordinators, companies and start-ups preparing a Horizon Europe, EIC, Eurostars or Innosuisse application.

Define target groups and the change expected for each
Interview potential users, buyers, adopters or multipliers
Document current alternatives, needs and adoption barriers
Obtain letters of interest only from organisations that have reviewed a specific proposition
Draft a contribution to the impact pathway and to the dissemination and exploitation measures
Identify ownership, IP, regulatory and standardisation questions for the appropriate specialists

Lead time: 3–6 weeks before the deadline
Deliverable: Evidence file, target-group map, interview synthesis, letters of interest obtained and a proposal-ready contribution. Funding is never promised.

Phase 2 · During the project

Communication, dissemination and exploitation work package

As a supplier to a funded project, or as a participant with a bounded task where the consortium and call justify it.

Stakeholder map segmented by influence, need and route to uptake
Communication and dissemination plan with messages, channels, responsibilities, budget and measurable indicators, updated periodically
Project identity, website and editorial production where required
Key exploitable results register: owner, maturity, dependencies, protection route, target users and next decision
Periodic exploitation workshops aligned with technical progress
Industrial outreach, clustering and matchmaking with relevant companies, projects, networks and public bodies
Policy, standardisation or procurement pathways where the results require them
Accessible, multilingual communication for defined user groups

Duration: Project lifetime, typically 3–4 years
Deliverable: A maintained evidence trail showing who was reached, what they need, which results are ready for which route, and what decision comes next.

Phase 3 · Towards uptake and continuity

Result validation and uptake plan

For projects that have a result and need to know where it can be used, by whom, and under which conditions.

Test priority applications with potential adopters
Rank pilot, licensing, procurement, spin-off, service and follow-up-project routes
Define the next owner, budget and milestone for each selected route
Prepare an adoption package for the organisations that will continue after the project ends

Duration: 6–10 weeks
Deliverable: A route-to-use plan for each priority result, with evidence, owner, next decision and continuity action.

Key exploitable results

From the people who need a result to the route that brings it into use

Indicators measure use and adoption, not only impressions: interviews held, pilots agreed, licences discussed, follow-up projects prepared.

Cooperation

How JCP can contribute to a consortium

JCP can work as a defined supplier or, where the consortium and call justify it, as a project participant with a bounded task or work package. Its role, effort, deliverables and relationship with any related company are disclosed and costed separately. Proposal-development consultancy is not charged to a future grant.

Senior people with defined responsibilities and availability
Work in English, French and German; outreach in the languages of your user groups
Industrial outreach in Switzerland and neighbouring countries, built on long-standing business-development work
Transparent reporting, including on results with limited market potential

JCP has not yet led a work package in a Horizon Europe project. Its directly evidenced experience is research communication, spin-off commercialisation and industrial business development; any proposed role is bounded and costed separately.

Swiss participation

Switzerland in Horizon Europe

Switzerland officially became associated to Horizon Europe on 10 November 2025, with retroactive application from 1 January 2025. Swiss participation remains subject to the conditions of each call, including any specific restrictions.

Interreg participation follows Swiss federal and cantonal rules. Erasmus+ association is planned from 2027. We check eligibility call by call. European Commission: Switzerland. Status checked: 5 October 2026.

Partners from outside Europe? As consortium architect, JCP helps organisations from China, India, the Gulf and Africa assess whether and how they can contribute to European projects. Consortium architect →

Applied AI and software work is done by technical partners such as Artabel AG, a related company in Schindellegi that takes part in EU projects in its own right. Where both are in the same consortium, their tasks and budgets are separate and the relationship is declared.

We would be pleased to discuss your project.
