Frequently Asked Questions

Do you only work on EU projects?

No. Consortium work is our main focus, but we also support R&D teams with project management, technology roadmaps and portfolio decisions outside funded projects.

Do you write full proposals?

Our focus is the Turkish side of the consortium and the work packages we own. Writing the full proposal for the consortium is scoped and quoted separately when needed.

How is pricing set?

Every engagement starts with a written scope, timeline and fixed fee. Consortium roles funded by the grant are agreed within the consortium budget.

Can foreign companies work with you without an EU project?

Yes. We help foreign companies map Turkish partners and structure collaborations with Turkish companies and universities.

Have a call or a project in mind?

Send us the call, your concept or a short description of your situation. We will tell you clearly where we can contribute.
