The average annual grant to a network could vary with the number of
researchers as follows:
50 researchers
100 researchers
150 researchers
250 researchers
500 researchers
1000 researchers and above
€ 1 million/year
€ 2 million/year
€ 3 million/year
€ 4 million/year
€ 5 million/year
€ 6 million/year
(for intermediate numbers, the grant would be calculated
by linear interpolation)
A network of 200 researchers supported over 5 years
would therefore receive a fixed grant of € 17,5 million
