From Bird View clusters to objectives, WPs and a realistic structureCheck out the episode siteIn this third and final episode of the Idea Development Workshop series, I’m joined by Ana-Marija Špicnagel (IPS Konzalting) to build what we call the project spine of a Horizon Europe proposal. We start from where episode 2 left off – with a Bird View canvas full of challenges, opportunities, stakeholders and future logic – and show how to distil that into a clear backbone: the main objectives, the key results you want to see, and a small number of work package lines that together can actually deliver the call’s expected outcomes.We then use the spine as a decision tool: what clearly belongs inside the project and what should be parked or moved to a different idea; which strands need which types of partners; where coordination, impact and exploitation work should sit; and how to sequence activities so the story makes sense for evaluators and for the people who will have to run the project. The aim is to leave you with a simple structure that you can explain in a few minutes – and that can grow into a full Part B without collapsing under its own weight.Time codes:00:02:45 Introduction and fly in00:05:05 The project shaping workshop00:36:55 Closing remarks
