How I work
The funding source follows the company strategy — not the other way around. I start with the technology, business case, readiness level, market and delivery capacity before recommending a programme.
Support may include opportunity assessment, funding roadmap, consortium and project structure, proposal development, budgets, impact and commercialisation planning, pitch readiness and evaluator-response strategy.
Questions founders ask
Do you guarantee a grant award?
No adviser can guarantee an award. We focus on programme fit, evidence, proposal quality and transparent go/no-go decisions.
