The Horizon Results Booster services are designed and delivered to boost the impact of research and innovation projects, supporting partners in their efforts to ensure their research activities creates a long-lasting impression on the economy and society at large. The project's goal is to maximise the impact of research and innovation projects, their tangible effect on society and economy.
Dissemination and exploitation activities are directly linked to impact. Research and innovation projects generate outputs which can be used, either by project partners or by other stakeholders, to create an Impact as the result of dissemination and exploitation activities. However, for several reasons this is not always happening (e.g. perceiving dissemination and exploitation as “tick boxes, focusing on carrying on project activities vs aligning work with the needs of users and stakeholders, etc.). The consequence is that in Europe, although a lot of high-quality research production, continues to fail to translate research findings or outputs into an impact on society and markets.
