Finding EU funding opportunities and completing an EU funding application can be a challenging task, especially for newcomers and small and medium sized organisations. EU Funding Consulting offers information and hands-on support to submit a high-quality EU funding proposal for your project idea.
In the course of 20 years working with EU policies and projects, I worked with EU grants from several perspectives. This includes writing grant applications myself, giving trainings, advising applicants as a National Contact Point, and being a moderator for proposal evaluation panels.
I have seen that many organisations often do not have the resources to fully engage in and benefit from EU funding opportunities. In particular, the complex rules for participation and a lack of expert knowledge about how to write a successful EU grant proposal present a challenge. Would you like to get support with your application?

Tell me your project idea(s) and I’ll advise you on the most suitable EU funding programme(s) for you.
