Are you looking for support in putting your project idea to paper?
Do you need a professional co-ordinator of your European project?

A project is a temporary and challenging self-contained complex with a defined scope for the performance of a relatively exceptional and specific co-ordinating process. It includes co-ordinating, monitoring and controlling its tasks as well as promoting the project results and its benefits for the European community.

When it comes to drafting a project idea on paper you are well advised to have on board managing experts for the co-ordination of your project.

EIBIR is continuously gaining importance and popularity among European and international research institutes in different sectors. In the service of research, EIBIR offers the exchange of multidisciplinary expertise and, in particular, the project management of European projects - from writing the proposal, composing the consortia until the co-ordination of the project to its end, and, if requested, advising even beyond its closing date.

EIBIR's managing experts assists you in preparing your project proposal and is very much likely to act as project co-ordinator.

Your project idea is cordially welcome!

EIBIR is pleased to receiving your project request.
