Applications and funding

Writing applications and generating funding

Would you like to use public funds to finance your project? You want to apply for your project idea in the most promising funding programme? You need someone to help you write the application? You want to spend your time implementing the project instead of managing the funding?
We specifically look for public funding programmes and funding for your project proposal (e.g. ESF, ERDF, INTERREG, Horizon Europe, ZIM). Together with you, we approach the funding bodies and convince them of the merits of your project. We write funding applications and organise the involvement of all project partners. We organise the administration of the funding and the preparation of the financial reports efficiently. We keep track of the project's financial resources for you on an ongoing basis.

Our service modules

  • Research into suitable funding programmes
  • Support with or preparation of applications
  • Lobbying
  • Budget planning for work packages and budget lines
  • Implementation of financial workshops
