Guidance for Project Partners – Questionnaire

This questionnaire helps initiate a collaboration with [team name]. Depending on whether you are exploring the opportunity to include digital outputs as part of your research or have already a developed idea to do so, and at what stage you are of the funding process, answering the following set of questions will inform the [team name] on how to better assess our involvement.  The more information you are able to provide, the better. This will allow [team name] to move more quickly from initial contact to producing a quote. We welcome early conversations about potential projects and [team name] can assist in exploring answers to questions you leave blank. [Team name] can also be involved with research projects in other ways, e.g. providing expert advice or running workshops on digital methods.
