Partner for communication, exploitation and multi-actor engagement in Cluster 6 projects

Senior Project Manager at Institute of Entrepreneurship Development

Larisa, Greece

About

The Institute of Entrepreneurship Development (iED, Greece) wants to join Horizon Europe Cluster 6 consortia preparing proposals for the 2027 calls, particularly topics on food systems, sustainable farming, rural areas, the bioeconomy and the circular economy that require a multi-actor approach, Social Sciences & Humanities integration and engagement with farmers, businesses and communities.

What we can take on in a consortium:

- Communication, dissemination and engagement. We can lead the communication and dissemination work package, as we currently do in ECOPILOT (Horizon Europe) and SchoolMedDiet (PRIMA). We bring our own channels: the EUcalls platform (32,000+ registered users), 40,000+ social media followers and 17,000+ newsletter subscribers.

- Exploitation, business planning and IPR. We prepare exploitation and sustainability plans, business models and market uptake strategies, as in COCOON and RESSORT (Horizon Europe).

- Multi-actor and citizen engagement. We organise co-creation workshops, needs assessments and validation activities with farmers, agri-food SMEs, local authorities, young people and consumers, drawing on a network of 4,200+ partners.

- Training and capacity building. As an accredited Lifelong Learning Centre we design training programmes, curricula and e-learning on green skills, entrepreneurship and digital tools, delivered through our own platform (academy.joistpark.eu).

- Testing and validation. We can pilot and validate project approaches with end users in Greece, Cyprus and Estonia, and through regional networks in Thessaly, Greece's main agricultural region, and Epirus.

- Project management. We have 20 years of experience and more than 400 European and national projects behind us.

Relevant Cluster 6 experience:

- FARM360TECH (I3, 2025-2028): uptake of innovative technologies across the agri-food value chain.

- SchoolMedDiet (PRIMA, 2026-2029): Mediterranean Diet and sustainable food habits in schools; iED leads engagement tools and dissemination.

- STARRISE (I3, 2023-2025): interregional innovation in agrofood and logistics value chains.

- Food Chase (Erasmus+, 2024-2027): sustainable food supply chains and food waste reduction.

- EcoMedIslands (Interreg Euro-MED): circular waste management on Mediterranean islands.

- SOS (Should I Stay or Should I Go?): young people and depopulation in rural and remote areas.

We are open to joining as a beneficiary or leading a work package.
