This webinar hosted by the European IP Helpdesk takes a closer look at the Consortium Agreement (CA) which specifies the rights and obligations of the project partners. For example, it contains provisions about the internal organisation and decision-making, financial questions and the handling of intellectual property rights. A CA is obligatory for most projects and should be signed prior to the Grant Agreement (GA). The webinar covers the following topics:

  • What is a consortium agreement?
  • When should the consortium agreement be signed, and by whom?
  • What model consortium agreements are available, and for what types of projects?
  • What issues should a consortium agreement deal with?
  • Regarding IP: which GA rules should not be contradicted by the CA?
  • Regarding IP: what are the areas in which GA rules leave flexibility for the CA?
  • Regarding IP: how to use the CA as a tool: examples of clauses to add to your draft

The registration form is available in the announcement of the webinar on the European IP Helpdesk website.

BEAT-AF - Ground-Breaking Electroporation-based intervention for Atrial Fibrillation treatment

The Horizon2020 project BEAT-AF brings together 9 European renowned clinical centres in France, Belgium, Czechia, Germany and Austria. Together, the consortium strives to revolutionize Atrial Fibrillation (AF) treatment through catheter ablation and contribute to decrease the huge burden of AF in Europe. The BEAT-AF project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2026. The department of electrophysiology of the AZ Sint-Jan Hospital in Bruges is partner in the project and has so far contributed to the pre-clinical development, the first in man studies and first registries of the revolutionary AF treatment put forward by the consortium. The first pilot studies show that the treatment is safe, effective and efficient.
