The 1-2-1 consultations are exceptional opportunities, available free of charge to Indian organizations and companies interested in R&D co-operation with Europe. These consultations give participants the chance to hold 45 minutes confidential bilateral talks with INCITE experts on the European funding schemes for research and development.

These consultations also help organisations clarify whether their research project idea has potential to be funded by the European Commission, or to expose these organizations' skills and expertise to a wide community of European actors in the IT research arena. This could mean finding upto 100% funding from the EC and potential partners in Europe, within a short time, for R&D activities.
