Professional Activity
As a United Nations official (UNCTAD), I’ve developed a solid experience in managing complex projects aimed at increasing the technological capacity of SMEs in developing countries. I have lectured at the IDHEAP (Institut de Hautes Etudes in Administration Publique), at Lausanne. I currently deal with financial grants, in particular with euro-planning: I assist different types of organisations – from SMEs, to more structured businesses, to public administrations, associations, etc. – in the preparation of projects to facilitate access to EU funds. I offer consultancy in the development of project ideas, identification of relevant European programs, research selection and contact of partners and finally in the definition and drafting of the necessary documentation for submission of projects.
Furthermore, I assist in project management, management of funded projects, setting up and report, relations with the European Commission and with project partners. I take part in the organisation of meetings and also attend meetings and international events as a representative of my clients.
