The ultimate guide on EU funding

Dear friend,
The new financial programming period 2007 � 2013 has begun with great opportunities for receiving EC funding for your activities.
e-ISOTIS is in the pleased position to announce the publication release of the new version of the ebook EU Funding Explained.
This book now in its second version follows the success of the first version and it should also be read jointly with the use of Internet in order someone to exploit the referenced web links that are given for further information and consultation. Furthermore, it deals with almost everything that someone needs in order to benefit from EU funding in 244 pages, i.e.

- The new structure of the European Union processes,
- the new EU budget,
- the new EU funding policy,
- future of European Union,
- the new funding opportunities per area of interest,
- successful examples of already funded projects,
- the new European Union funding programmes for the current period 2007-2013,
- detailed and simple steps for successful proposals,
- how to improve your proposal writing skills,
- updated EC contact details,
- from where to start, etc.

This is the reason that we like considering this publication also a manual. A manual that gives you the means and skills for benefiting from EU funding. The �EU Funding Explained� book is updated on a yearly basis so as to include all the changes and the new elements of the EU funding programmes, mechanisms and processes.
You can find more info at www.e-isotis.org/publications.php.

This book can be considered as a lifeline for anyone who is seeking financial support from the European Union and/or has ever struggled to achieve that and wishes to know and become familiar with the new funding concepts from the European Union for the period 2007-2013.

A lot of things have changed in this programming period and anyone that is interested in exploiting the new EU funding opportunities should read the manual like :

- Organisations that are private or public, local/regional, national or international, profit or non-profit, SMEs or NGOs, public authorities, institutions that are interested to benefit from EU funding;
- Organisations as above that wish to expand their network of partners around Europe
- Organisations/individuals that are looking for new opportunities in supporting their business development strategy;
- Organisations/individuals that are involved already in projects funded by the EU and wish to see what funding is planned for the new programming period 2007-2013;
- Organisations/individuals that have no experience in proposal writing and no familiarisation on the structure of EU funding and want to see whether it is worth the effort;
- Organisations/individuals that wish to work as consultants on writing professional proposals for third parties for exploiting EU funding;
- Organisations/individuals that are already involved in proposal writing and wish to expand their knowledge;
- Organisations/individuals that wish to know more about the European community and its structure.

Those after becoming familiar with this manual will:

    1.be aware of the possible funding opportunities and be able to identify possible programmes of interest and participate in relevant calls for proposals;
    2.become familiar with the EU funding structures;
    3.know how to join proposals requesting funding initiated from other organisations;
    4.know what are the elements of a successful proposal and how to fulfil them;
