UNE - R+D+I projects

Macro Horizon 2020 programme

Many of its selection processes recommend or require the inclusion of standardisation, especially in blocks on 'Leadership in Enabling and Industrial Technologies' (LEIT) and 'Social challenges'. When it is addressed in a suitable way, apart from the benefits for projects, it can resonate positively on the assessments of the proposals.
