MP Consulting

MP Consulting is an independent research, innovation and project-development organisation supporting companies, universities, research organisations, SMEs and international consortia in the preparation and implementation of Horizon Europe and other European R&I projects.

MP Consulting combines European project design capabilities with hands-on scientific and engineering expertise, allowing it to contribute not only to proposal preparation and project management, but also directly to the technical development and validation of research activities.

The organisation can support Horizon Europe consortia from the early project-concept stage through proposal development, implementation and exploitation, including:

• Horizon Europe proposal development and consortium building

• definition of project objectives, expected outcomes and impact pathways

• work package, task, milestone and deliverable design

• TRL assessment and definition of technology development roadmaps

• technical coordination and R&D planning

• risk assessment, validation strategies and KPI definition

• partner identification and international cooperation

• communication between scientific, technological and industrial partners

• exploitation-oriented planning and translation of research results towards applications.

A distinctive feature of MP Consulting is the combination of project-development expertise with a strong deep-tech and experimental R&D background.

Scientific and technological expertise

MP Consulting can contribute directly to R&D activities involving:

• microfluidics and lab-on-chip systems

• point-of-care and miniaturised diagnostic platforms

• electrochemical sensors and biosensors

• electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and voltammetric methods

• SERS and spectroscopy-based sensing

• optical and plasmonic sensing technologies

• nanotechnology and functional nanomaterials

• advanced materials for sensing and biomedical applications

• microfabrication and device prototyping

• UV lithography and micro-patterning

• thin-film and electrode fabrication

• screen-printed and miniaturised electrodes

• microfluidic cartridge and fluidic architecture design

• integration of sensors, electronics and fluidics

• 3D design and rapid prototyping

• surface functionalisation and bio-recognition strategies

• development and optimisation of experimental protocols

• sensor-array and cross-reactive sensing approaches

• signal processing and data-driven analysis of sensor outputs

• technology validation from laboratory proof-of-concept towards higher TRLs.

The organisation is particularly interested in projects where sensing, microfluidics, advanced materials, diagnostics and digital technologies converge into integrated systems.

Horizon Europe collaboration

MP Consulting is interested in joining consortia as a technical partner, R&D contributor, task leader or work-package contributor, as well as supporting the development and coordination of new proposals.

Priority areas include:

• Digital & Smart Health

• medical diagnostics and point-of-care technologies

• personalised and preventive health technologies

• biosensors and biomedical devices

• environmental and chemical sensing

• advanced sensing platforms

• nanotechnology and advanced materials

• smart manufacturing and miniaturised devices

• digitalisation of experimental and analytical workflows

• Twin Green & Digital Transition

• circular economy, resource efficiency and environmental monitoring

• technology transfer and deep-tech innovation.

MP Consulting is particularly interested in Horizon Europe Cluster 1 – Health, Cluster 4 – Digital, Industry and Space, Cluster 5 – Climate, Energy and Mobility, relevant cross-cluster initiatives, and collaborative research programmes such as Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions.

The organisation is open both to joining existing consortia and to co-developing new Horizon Europe concepts with universities, RTOs, hospitals, SMEs, start-ups, industrial partners and public organisations.

MP Consulting's main added value is the ability to work at the interface between scientific research, engineering development and European project design, helping transform an initial research idea into a technically credible project with clear objectives, measurable results, realistic TRL progression and a defined pathway towards validation and impact.
