Exploitation: the critical bridge from research to real-world impact

In the realm of research project management, few concepts are as misunderstood yet critically important as “exploitation.” While researchers naturally focus on generating novel findings and advancing scientific knowledge, funding agencies increasingly demand clear pathways to practical application and societal value.

Dissemination vs communication: a strategic approach to research project success

In the competitive landscape of research funding and project management, the terms “dissemination” and “communication” are often used interchangeably. However, treating them as synonymous represents a fundamental misunderstanding that can significantly undermine a project’s impact and success.

Strategic Stakeholder Engagement

Transforming stakeholder involvement from compliance exercise to competitive advantage. Open any research proposal and you’ll find a stakeholder section. Most feature an impressive list: industry partners, policy makers, patient groups, NGOs, SMEs, and more. Yet evaluators consistently cite weak stakeholder engagement as a major proposal weakness. The problem? Listing stakeholders is not a strategy.
