Integrated funding advice for major projects

An annual allowance of up to € 1,000,000 for research and development activities – the Research Allowance Act offers significant financial incentives for all companies. We help you to implement the steps required for receiving the allowance, complement it with other government grants and organise your research activities efficiently on an international basis. Our work does not just include financial aspects. Engineers answer technical questions about your project, demonstration optimisation options and help ensure that your project also becomes that what it is for you for the approving authorities: i.e. eligible for funding!
