No secret nor big suprise really: it all depends on the fact that the cost model for funding has drastically changed. When compared to FP7, for all Industrial and SMEs players in Europe to be involved in Research and Innovation Actions and/or Coordination and Support Actions is a unique opportunity to capitilize on their innovation investments, as all costs are in H2020 refunded at 100% rate – while in the past, for both STREPs and IPs, funding was limited to cover 50% or 75% of the planned costs for big industrial players and SMEs respectively.
