Projects with external co-beneficiaries
In case of co-beneficiaries located in other Institutions, their share of the budget will be transferred by USI upon agreement of the terms of payment (i.e. modalities, timing, and so on). For that purpose, please inform us so that we can get in touch with the Grants Administration Office of the partner Institution.
In general, many other funding bodies require a signed contract and an invoice to start the project and to release the funds. When you are granted such a project, please inform the Grants Office to receive tailored support through the given procedure.
