The PerformFISH Dissemination and Exploitation Plan (DEP) has been developed to guide and support the dissemination and exploitation of the PerformFISH project and its results. The DEP was initially developed at application stage and first updated in month 5 and a review was submitted in M18. A new review has now been carried out in month 36. The M36 version mainly includes adjustments informed by the first phase to ensure effectiveness of efforts going forward. It also contains a summary of the activities carried out until M36 and the planned activities for the next period. The DEP summarises the rights and obligations in relation to dissemination and exploitation according to the EC rules, describes the means of dissemination and defines the dissemination channels. In addition, the DEP outlines the internal process set up to manage the knowledge outputs and to ensure exploitation of PerformFISH results. The DEP contains a set of protocols to ensure that all relevant knowledge coming out of the project is carefully managed. The protocols are set up to: Disseminate the PerformFISH project and its results, ensuring information provision and awareness rising Collect, analyse and transfer research outputs (e.g. products, methodologies, findings) to end-users who can make best use of those results. The transfer phase ensures that relevant information and knowledge is customized so that it is ready for uptake by different target end-users. Ensure PerformFISH foreground and Intellectual Property (IP) are properly managed PerformFISH will develop and make use of the latest tools, resources and communication channels resulting in cost effectiveness and maximum impact. Overall, Work Package 8 of PerformFISH will ensure effective external communication, dissemination and optimal outreach of PerformFISH results and applications leading to optimal exploitation of its research. The Dissemination and Exploitation Plan has been developed by AquaTT, who are responsible for its coordination. However, all project partners are involved in dissemination and exploitation to foster awareness and transfer results for impact, especially in their own countries and in their own communities.
