Are networks renewable for additional terms?
New networks are funded for a five-year term. Upon successful completion of that term, networks are eligible to apply for a second five-year term. For networks funded for two consecutive five-year terms, a third (and final) term could be available where the network has developed and built on its partnerships to progressively transform itself into a partner-driven network. In a partner-driven network, the partners become the lead applicants. The partners define the business plan and the research agenda. The proposed business plan will be assessed on its viability and whether it has the potential to successfully translate the network’s knowledge and technologies to the user community.
