------------40+ hours of Video based training delivered by more than 30 top experts in Horizon 2020---------------
The reason that this summit has a duration of 5 days is because we give emphasis and focus on tips and best practices on each Horizon 2020 grant component (i.e. ERC, MSCA, FET, SME instrument, RIA and IA actions, horizontal topics such as communication, dissemination & exploitation, ethics, Open Data management, IP, proposal writing style, etc). Our mission is to establish the Horizon 2020 virtual summit as the single point of knowledge for anyone wishing to explore deeper any of the Horizon 2020 grant schemes. However, with life-time access, you don't have to complete the training in 5 days but definitely, you should NOT get involved in any Horizon 2020 initiative before re-watching those training sessions that are related to the type of the targeted action. You will receive inspiration, guidance and get confidence of succeeding.
