Funding opportunity assessment
A structured review of the company, project, development stage, technical work and planned expenditure to identify the most relevant Dutch and European support routes.
R&D Grants Advisory
Define the challenge.
Prove the work.
Fund the innovation.
Funding strategy and application development for companies turning technically ambitious R&D into defensible Dutch and European funding cases.
↓More than a funding form
A credible bridge
from technical risk
to public support.
R&D funding applications succeed when technical ambition is translated into a precise, evidence-based development case.
We connect the engineering reality with the language, structure and planning expected by assessors. The technical problem, uncertainty, work programme, costs and intended results must reinforce one another from the first page to the final calculation.
Who this service is for
For companies solving
problems that cannot be
bought off the shelf.
Technology companies undertaking technically uncertain product or software development
Dutch startups and scale-ups preparing WBSO applications
International companies establishing eligible R&D activity in the Netherlands
Innovation teams seeking structured national or European project funding
What we deliver
One defensible
funding application.
Application strategy
A clear approach to scope, timing, eligibility, evidence and resource allocation so the funding request supports the company’s wider R&D roadmap.
Technical application development
Detailed project descriptions that translate complex development work into clear technical problems, uncertainties, activities, methods and expected results.
Financial & planning alignment
Project hours, costs, milestones, work packages and forecasts aligned with the technical narrative and the requirements of the selected scheme.
Assessment & defence support
Preparation for questions, clarifications and reviews, with a structured evidence trail that helps the company defend the substance of its application.
Our process
Technical depth.
Application discipline.
Screen
We assess the company, project and intended R&D activities against the relevant funding conditions.
Scope
We define the eligible development work, technical boundaries, evidence needs, work packages and application strategy.
Substantiate
We develop the technical narrative, financial logic, milestones and supporting documentation.
Validate
We check consistency across the application, project planning, costs, hours, claims and underlying evidence.
Defend
We support the company through questions, revisions, assessment and the practical requirements that follow an award.
What the application must demonstrate
Challenge.
Uncertainty.
Development.
We structure the case around the real technical questions assessors need answered—not around broad claims of innovation.
What is the technical problem?
We define the concrete limitation the project must overcome and explain why existing knowledge, tools or standard solutions are insufficient.
Where is the uncertainty?
We identify what the development team cannot determine in advance and the technically plausible approaches that must be investigated.
What will be developed?
We connect methods, experiments, software or product components, testing, milestones, hours and costs into a coherent R&D programme.
Frequently asked questions
Before you
apply.
Do you only support WBSO applications?+
No. WBSO is an important route for Dutch R&D activity, but we also assess whether other national or European innovation programmes may fit the project and growth plan.
Can you work from brief technical input?+
Yes. We work with founders and technical teams to turn concise input into a complete and structured application while preserving the real technical substance of the project.
What makes an R&D application strong?+
A strong application clearly identifies the technical problems, uncertainties, development activities and planned results. It must also remain consistent with the project plan, hours, costs and available evidence.
Do you support the company after submission?+
Yes. We can support clarification questions, technical defence, project administration and preparation for reviews or audits within the agreed scope.
