What do we manage at the FBG?
At the FBG, we negotiate and process contracts with companies and institutions to carry out research and development work and provide scientific, technical, and artistic services under Article 60 of the LOSU.
We also advise on the preparation and submission of the formal, administrative, and budgetary sections of applications for national and international grants and subsidies for transfer and innovation projects.
We walk you through the entire recruitment process, from resolving any doubts you may have to the signing of the contract:
- We review the legal clauses of the contract.
- We negotiate contract conditions and review budgets.
- We arrange for extensions, subrogations, etc.
- We draw up confidentiality agreements.
We manage the grants and subsidies of the FBG and those offered by the UB Research Management Office:
- We identify calls of interest to research groups.
- We review the requirements of the call for proposals.
- We support you in the development of the proposal and the budget.
- We review and negotiate consortium/partnering agreements.
