We are proud to be a part of the biggest EU Research and Innovation programme ever with nearly €80 billion of funding.

We are official advisors of the European Commission for Horizon 2020 and we have the responsibility to evaluate and select the best projects and enterprises around Europe that will receive the public funding.

We help companies to be funded and to write a successful proposal. We also support our clients during the different implementation phases.

Participating in Horizon 2020 is an ambitious challenge, however we have one of the highest success rate between our European competitors. We have created a Centre of Excellence in Switzerland with some of the most skilled EU grant specialists.

Our client portfolio includes some of the most important public institutions in Italy and in Europe.
