Editorial 29.01.2016

An external proofreading will help you take one step back and bring a clean eye to your proposal text. In particular, it will help you: 

Check the general writing style and flow is in line with what is expected by H2020 evaluators

Eliminate those last typo errors … Like in many context, first impression is key for evaluators of H2020 proposals and spelling mistakes work against you!

Pinpoint unclear descriptions: what could seem obvious to you may not be written off clear enough to be understood by someone outside the project or outside your technical expertise (and evaluators cannot guess)

Correct potential inconsistencies between the work plans, Gantt chart and budget estimation.

Highlight if some important points are missing or need improvement (in terms of IP, exploitation, ethics/gender issues)

And guess what? NCP Brussels can proofread your project proposal during the drafting process to help you maximise your chance to score well in the evaluation process (free service exclusively for Brussels-based organisations). 

Ask our team at least 2 weeks ahead of the deadline to benefit from this proofreading service!
