Please upload here the sheet, put your datas in, sign it  and send it to Olivier Fabre at AGRIA.
you will have to explain these changes to your management and your finance officer: here is the explanation.

1- Remember that you got in december 2010 a budget increase of 4.000 or 8.000 € (wich means a 25% or 15% part to finance with your own financing...) when sharing external expenses costs with AGRIA lead participant.

2- For example, UMU engaged a  14.890 € own financing  in october 2010 and then CREATOR comitte increased UMU's own financing  to 16.890 € in december...!
This does not significate that you will be asked for seending this money to AGRIA:

3- AGRIA will engage expenses corresponding to these shared costs, will pay it directly to dedicated contractor==>     AGRIA will send to UMU  the corresponding document with the amount shared ==> UMU will not pay it but  include it in its expense claim at the end of each semester.

4- When receiving ERDF from CREATOR, AGRIA will keep the money corresponding to its former payment

 

Nota bene: This process will be done with all the 7 participants

Please consider Bergamo Airport as a good way to access to Brescia Province.

Bergamo Orio al Serio Airport is 55 km far from Brescia.
This is a Ryanair hub.... flight tickets are very cheap, especially if you purchase them right now.

It is possible to take a shuttle or a taxi to Brescia from there!

I will ask Creator Brescia Province lady, laura Gaffurini, to find us a good hotel in order

• to be able to organize the together lunch in May 18th evening
• and to have the best prices

As in Metz in january, you will then have to book your room....but please, wait until  a next note opening hotel booking !

Share costs

Dear all,

Yesterday, i've a meeting with my regional coordinator on the creator project. For the share costs, costs paid by AGRIA, there are two solutions:

-either AGRIA makes a bill on a pro rata base in the partnership agreement and when AGRIA makes the expenditure, each partner must pay to AGRIA the bill when the bill will be received.

-or AGRIA makes a bill on a pro rata base in the partnership agreement and when AGRIA will receive the ERDFund, AGRIA will keep correspondings amounts and decrease payments to participants from the same amount that the bill.

If it is not clear, please do not hesitate to ask me questions.

Bests Regards

Olivier

INTERREG IVC

Minutes - Meeting January 26th 2011

Jan '11- Jun '11
Workshop no. 3 in Brescia, Italy (mandatory) 18th and 19th may 2011
Component 3: Exchange of experiences and analysis of good practices To prepare the project Action plan including methodology to carry out the activities, activities distribution, preparation for implementation component, …	- Project orientation and action plan all
NOTE: We have several doubts about the action plan. Is it the distribution of tasks that appears in this sheet, or is anything else??? In the meeting, we had understood that the action plan was going to be carried out by INNO8 and AGRIA. If it is supposed to be developed by all of us, we would appreciate more information about the involved tasks. Let's say that it concerns all of us. You may always contribute and propose some pertinent approach
To map regional activities/entities working on food related and/or ageing issues -To write reports on local potential contributions NOTE: What kind of contributions do you mean? Contributions of pertinent actors to identify: if you meet them, you should have advice on their potential contribution	6  food related activities regional maps  all
-State of art: how is "food for elderly" being taken in consideration in each region regarding the identified project items: nutrition, packaging, logistics,…	We think we all have to prepare our own state of art about the thematic that better fits in with each partner, don't we? Yes, You're right !
Preparation of a survey related to elderly habits.	- 1survey related to elderly habits and expectations regarding food and health prepared. leader: HAMK UMU PULS
-To prepare the survey regarding innovation tendencies and capabilities (form, questions, goals, …) We have to look into the innovative tendencies and capabilities but regarding what? Food for elderly	- innovation survey report : first elements leader: PRODINTEC INNO8
-Technological state of the art review: Technology available, existing products, design methodologies, future...	- 1 draft report gathering the state of the art of the technology all
What is the existing relationship between the state of art that appears above and this one? Do they have anything to do or are completely different? Because of our different background in this project, probably several partners would start to study aspects regarding technology, e.g., about manufacturing or packaging technologies. Since this is a task that has to be developed by all of us, we would like you to specify the following: The real difference between them if it exists. What sort of technology we have to focus in this task. Design methodologies of what: new products??? Future tendencies about technology, products…??? Woww!!!! We don't intend to publish a 300 pages file….. At this time, we are trying to organize ourselves and to gather potential contribution of each partner. This form has been the canvas of our application, helping us to explain was we should do to CREATOR jury and to win the project! But this is only a canvas to help us to ask such good questions as you did! I would say that we are at the beginning of the work and if you have responses to your questions – working with CEEI - that should be a good thing
Regulation review: laws, state "public involvement", planification, territory management,	-1 draft report of regarding regulation leader: NFH
- To exchange datas (collaborative tools), discussing	- First inputs about benchmarking and analyzing strength and weaknesses in each region           all
This remark is similar than the other ones. We should draw up a sort of SWOT but regarding what topics? Yes, if you feel it, please be kind to propose a SWOT matrix….. è then we have something to drive our discussion/exchanges
Component 4: Implementation   To start discussing internally the issues and the requirements for BL implementation	-Draft implementation activities note all

 

Who is responsible of what:

• CEEI Asturias Fundacion PRODINTEC INNO8 should work on a flyer in English version about BIOLIFE

  Goal is to help each BIOLIFE participant to explain to future interviewees what is BIOLIFE and its goals and aims.

  Please, include the "target group" approach in the document (to be compliant with CREATOR communication approach

• HAMK University of Applied Sciences, Umeå university NFH with AGRIA LORRAINE should work on a 1^st draft of a survey polling elderly about their needs and wishes : opinion poll in English version
• AGRIA: should propose to the whole group a typical "state of art intelligence draft" about senior food involved organizations, universities, clusters, companies, BSO (business support organizations such as chambers of commerce, innovation and development agencies…) of a state of art. Does it mean that AGRIA will have to send us a draft that allows us how to initiate the study of the state of art and what kind of organizations we should include in this study? More or less…. yes ! But it is always the same thing: someone proposes, then we discuss and exchange on it!
• PULS : Checklist approach of the needs of elderly (3-4 groups),
• NFH: process and legal approach draft of the issue being useable by other BIOLIFE participants to include it in their state of art report
• For example: the cholesterol is very important subject for the senior population.
• Give testimonial to create "senior Lab" What does this mean? This is the demand coming from CREATOR working group to have a "senior lab" having 7 senior people coming from the 7 regions in each. I have mentioned it because we have been asked to help CREATOR working group to find someone here in Lorraine. If you have the same opportunity in your area, don't hesitate to propose someone to Jason !

• Next meeting
  • Video-conference: 1rst April 2011 10h organized by AGRIA LORRAINE for exchange the different part. About the videoconference, what parts should we exchange? And by the way, what is the deadline of our tasks in this semester? Should we have something finished for this conference?

  Forget "the different parts", it doesn't signify anything (bad translation).
  No, 1^st April meeting is an intermediary workshop

  • Brescia Meeting ( mandatory): 18^th & 19 may 2011 è please book your agenda

Important: everybody has to begin to prepare an international video conference. AGRIA will be responsible for the global preparation

Our project attracts attention in the media

Hello to all of you, BIOLIFE partners!

I just want to inform you that our BIOLIFE project has got some attention in our local media here in Västerbotten. When Länsstyrelsen announced the approved applications there were several newspapers reporting of this  and this morning I was invited to the radio to talk about our collaboration.

There seem to be many people interseted in our project which is good news since it might facilitate our "networking".
