Introduction

Are you a Small and Medium sized Enterprise (SME) interested in strengthening your market position, improving your existing products or acquiring new skills by getting involved in a Research and Development (R&D) project funded by the European Commission (EC)?  If so, we can help you to get the most out of your R&D project.  Alternatively, if you are a research performer currently working in a project with SMEs, or considering doing so in the future, then this Guide will also be of use to you.
 
Is this Guide for you?

Essentially the Guide has been produced in order to equip and prepare SMEs to make better use of the results of collaborative R&D projects so that they can be of benefit to their businesses by having a tangible impact on profits, competitiveness and company growth.  SMEs from previously identified 24 Best Practice R&D projects were asked how they used and disseminated their research results in order to indentify the real benefits that companies can obtain from collaborative R&D projects and how to go about it and this knowledge and experience has helped to shape the contents of this Guide.  So whether you are thinking of joining a collaborative R&D project in the near future, or whether you are already involved in a project that is underway, if you want to get the most out of your participation, then this is the Guide for you.

The Guide is packed with helpful information advice, quotes and real-life examples from SMEs that participated in 24 Best Practice projects. You should find this useful during your own project when you start planning for the use and dissemination of the results.
It is important to be aware before we set out, that there is no single best approach to the exploitation and dissemination of research results. There is no unique magic formula. But there are many ingredients required for success and this Guide will introduce you to a number of approaches that work for different scenarios so that you can pick and match the ones that best suit your needs.
