You should have a Route::post in your route file to capture the form submit,
say something like Route::post('projects', 'ProjectController#create');
The function that returns the view should be called index with a route like this: Route::get('projects', 'ProjectController#index');
In the create function you can use Input() to grab the information submitted by the form.
After grabbing the information you need you can then add the details to your projects table using Eloquent.
e.g.
$project = new Project();
$project->name = 'Name'
$project->fields = 'Text'
$project->save();
After inserting and saving the details into your database you can do a redirect to projects/ID/collaborators route using the redirect function.
You will also need to create a route for projects/ID/collaborators so you dont get a 404...
e.g. Route::get('projects/{id}/collaborators', 'ProjectController#collaborators');
