The Challenge
You discover relevant EU funding opportunities weeks before the deadline—after competitors spent months preparing and forming consortia. Despite monitoring intentions, the fragmented landscape defeats you: calls scattered across multiple programme websites, announced through different channels, buried in generic Commission communications. By the time you find applicable calls, the competitive window has closed. Your choice: Rush a weak application or abandon the opportunity entirely.
Why It Happens
EU funding opportunities are published across dozens of programme-specific portals, each with different announcement procedures and timelines. Monitoring a few familiar programmes means missing: Calls in adjacent policy areas supporting your activities Opportunities in programmes you've never engaged Predictable call rhythms from work programme cycles Without dedicated tracking resources, you'll inevitably miss applicable calls or discover them too late.
Our Solution
Systematic horizon scanning identifying opportunities during work programme development—months before formal publication: Monitoring Commission work programme consultations Tracking programme committee discussions Direct relationships with funding experts providing advance notice of upcoming priorities and timelines
The Outcome
Strategic funding pipeline management—pursuing opportunities with adequate preparation time, avoiding the rushed-application cycle that wastes resources on low-probability submissions. Advance awareness enables: Proactive consortium formation Technical approach development Resource mobilisation distinguishing competitive proposals from deadline-driven scrambles You shift from reactive scrambling to strategic pursuit—positioning for success rather than participating where timeline constraints preclude competitive positioning.
How We Deliver
Ongoing funding intelligence providing regular updates on opportunities aligned with your objectives: Detailed call forecasting from programme work plans Advance notice when relevant calls open Strategic guidance on which opportunities merit pursuit given your capacity and competitive landscape The result: A structured funding pipeline where you allocate proposal development to opportunities you can address competitively—replacing ad hoc call discovery with systematic opportunity awareness.
