Choosing where to start
We have an idea but no funding yet. Where should we begin?
Usually with Identify solutions: a clear problem, evidence from users and a readiness assessment make any funding application far stronger. If a competition deadline is close, we can run both together.
We have a funded project already. Can you still help?
Yes. Many clients come to us for project management, reporting, or the exploitation and impact work funders expect in the later stages.
Do you only work with UK organisations?
We are based in the UK and work with partners internationally, including on bilateral innovation and trade programmes and European collaborative projects.
