plan of activities
Multiannual technical and economic programme for the chair.
How the laws define this
Both regulatory sources agree that a plan of activities is a detailed technical workplan structured around work packages and schedules for funded university–industry AI chairs. They diverge primarily on the legal stage of the grant process in which the plan operates. Under Order ETD/1180/2022 establishing and calling for Cátedras ENIA (university–industry AI chairs) (Cátedras ENIA), the plan is a multiannual technical and economic programme submitted by applicants—encompassing objectives, budgets, expected impacts, training, exploitation plans, and participating entity commitments—that forms the basis for evaluation and funding. Conversely, Order TDF/304/2025 (27 March 2025) modifying Order ETD/1180/2022 on Cátedras ENIA (modification of bases for AI university–industry chairs) treats the plan as a finalized instrument incorporated into the resolution of concession, explicitly setting out deliverables and financed activities that dictate execution and grant justification.
