At the beginning of a project, we focus on defining a tailored funding strategy, ensuring that your project is positioned in relation to specific funding calls. We assist in identifying potential partners and help establish any necessary Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs), allowing us to set clear global objectives. We also support the creation of a Concept Note, which lays the foundation for your project’s funding journey.
As the project progresses, typically 18 months before submission, we continue our support by helping you refine your project plan. We assist with securing additional partners to fill any skills gaps and provide guidance in writing the application to align with the specific funding call. This includes defining objectives, work packages, methodology, and the overall business plan. We also assist in preparing a detailed budget and financial plan, gathering and verifying required documents, and defining the project’s potential impact. If applicable, we prepare presentation materials and speeches for submission and represent you during the submission process.
When the project reaches 12 months before submission, our team supports the selection and negotiation process. We help prepare the necessary documents for contractual agreements and ensure the consortium agreement is in place. Additionally, we address any intellectual property (IP) concerns and plan for any required publications to ensure the project is fully prepared for the next steps.
Throughout the entire process, including up to 60 months after submission, we provide continuous support, ensuring higher success rates and providing ongoing maturity to your R&D and innovation strategies. This comprehensive support is designed to help your project succeed from start to finish.
We work closely with clients to help translate their projects and ideas into successful proposals that meet the requirements of funding agencies. Our team ensures that all documentation aligns with the specific requirements of each funding program or instrument.
We begin by assisting in the maturation of priority projects, identifying key funding opportunities, and supporting clients in approaching potential partners to form strong consortiums. Our consortium management services ensure that all partners are aligned and ready for collaboration. We also help in gathering the necessary administrative documents and ensuring they comply with the specific formats requested by funding agencies.
Our team provides comprehensive support in developing a detailed project proposal. This includes estimating and consolidating budgets, creating economic models, conducting impact studies, and drafting exploitation plans, as well as outlining dissemination and communication actions. We also offer co-drafting of proposals to ensure that they reflect the highest standards, along with critical reviews to make sure every aspect of the proposal is in line with the funding agency’s expectations.
Additionally, we assist with negotiation and bid management, ensuring that proposals are optimised for submission. We support clients during the instruction phase and provide clarity on any doubts regarding funding programs. Our expertise also extends to providing guidance on key subjects such as intellectual property (IP) and legal matters, ensuring a comprehensive approach to the grant application process.
In the end, we deliver mature, high-quality proposals that are ready for submission, helping clients secure the funding they need to turn their innovative ideas into reality.
