ABSTRACT
The stronger and wider the networks of people you work alongside and with whom you collaborate, the earlier you should hear of opportunities to bid, and the more likely it is youll be invited to tender. Being in the thick of things should mean that you are up to date with developments in your field and know of expected changes to national policies related to your area(s) of interest. So you can anticipate the future focus of likely funding - that will be focused on national priorities and problem issues.
