Dear All,
Finally, the PO of STAR I-II showed signs of life. Today she called me and sent the following message in the Participant Portal (you can read it if you log in):
"Start date of the implementation period
Dear Mr Kulitsán,
As explained on the phone earlier today, all data introduced in the Participant Portal for the preparation of the grant agreement are fine and we are ready to launch the procedure for the signature of the grant agreement. The project implementation start date indicated in the Participant Portal is 1 June 2018 but I understand that you have not started any project activities yet. Therefore before launching the signature process I would appreciate if you could confirm the start date to be indicated in the grant agreement (which will also correspond to the first day of eligibility of costs). You may choose a date that is most convenient for the implementation of the project regardless of the theoretical dates indicated in the Participant Portal. (Please keep in mind holiday seasons that could interfere with key activities of the project.)
Best regards,
Anne De Wolf"
According to the timeline in the PP the deadline for signing the grant agreement is 27 October 2018, but I think we should not wait until then. Considering the message and the fact that we definitely should avoid overlaps with deadlines for submission of deliverables in STAR I, I hereby would like to ask you whether you have any suggestions or preferred date to start STAR II?
Best,
Gábor
