Call-fit decision

FAQ
Questions founders ask us.
What does a Horizon Europe consultant do?
A Horizon Europe consultant helps a consortium interpret the call, test strategic fit, structure the project and partner roles, develop the proposal and review it against the evaluation logic. The work is not only writing: strong proposals depend on a credible consortium, measurable outcomes and a coherent implementation plan.
Can a startup apply to Horizon Europe?
Yes, startups and SMEs can participate in many Horizon Europe actions, but the exact eligibility and consortium requirements depend on the specific call and action type. Some topics are collaborative and require partners from multiple countries, while other instruments have different rules.
Do you help build the consortium?
We can support consortium strategy, partner-role design and targeted partner identification. We do not invent partners merely to satisfy a formal requirement; each partner needs a defensible role in the project.
When should proposal preparation start?
For a collaborative Horizon Europe proposal, preparation should begin well before the deadline because partner alignment, work packages, budget, impact, exploitation and governance take time to resolve. Starting early also allows a realistic go/no-go decision.
Build the funding strategy before the deadline pressure begins.
