Startup Funding, simplified

We connect your startup with public funding, from idea to approved grant.

Over the past years, we’ve helped startups and scaleups (tech & beyond) secure six-figure public funding across national and international programs – from first application to approval.

4. Full submission & approval support. *
Germany: Most funding programs follow a multi-stage process. You typically start by submitting a project outline (based on the funding body’s template). If approved, you move on to the full application stage.
Austria: Most funding programs follow a single-stage process, meaning you directly submit the full application without a prior project outline.
