EU PROJECT DESIGN Learning how to write and submit successful bids for EU funding

In times of lack of operative funding for NGO’s, associations, and profit organisations it becomes more and more relevant to draw financial liquidity from available resources, among others from European grants. Also SME’s and start ups could benefit of the EU funding support so to enter the market or to contribute with their know how to the development of innovation. Very often it is unpromising to access these funds due to their complexity, their variety, accessibility, and high competitiveness. Therefore, there is a necessity to understand – with relevant details – this generous though challenging financing mechanism. It is therefore important to collect information about available funds, to learn how to apply by means of editing a qualitative proposal which evaluators will appreciate and approve.
