5. Experience from MARINTEK EU FP 5 - Programmes • RTD project Hullmon+ (DG RTD) • MARINTEK coordinator • Gives control of the project • Select the right partners

6. Experience from MARINTEK EU FP 5 - Programmes • RTD project SWAN ( DG IST) • Dissemination of results from other IST projects • RTD project D2D (DG Tren) • WWL coordinator • RTD and demonstration • Practical testing of Norwegian IT systems for Transport Chains

7. Experience from MARINTEK EU FP 5 - Programmes • Thematic Network THEMES • Important for building consortium for the next project

8. Experience from MARINTEK EU FP 6 • IP Proposal C4Freight (Transport Corridor-DG Tren) • Large consortium ~ 80 partners • Industrial partners all Europe • MARINTEK(RTD institute) as coordinator – Industry ? • Complicated to make a detailed implementation plan • Did not pass the evaluation

9. Experience from MARINTEK EU FP 6 • STREP DSS_DC (DG RTD) • MARINTEK coordinator • Smaller consortium – 8 partners • Well defined RTD scope • Positive and close contact with DG RTD in preparation phase. • “Simple” contract negotiations with the Commission • Project started

10. Experience from MARINTEK • Positive experience • Takes time and resources • Can not win all projects • Select the task which fits your organization and needs • Select partners for a winning team
