Not just an application. Project development.
A successful grant application doesn't begin with the writing. It begins with the question of whether the project goal, program, partner roles, impact logic, and feasibility are all aligned.
Capstone therefore works along the entire project logic: from early scoping to concrete responsibility in coordination, work packages or exploitation.
Six phases – from idea to implementation.
The support is tailored to the project phase – from the early funding strategy through consortium and proposal to coordination and implementation.

is more important than the product.
The focus is primarily on Horizon Europe, Digital Europe, and Erasmus+, including Centres of Vocational Excellence. Other programs will be reviewed on a project-specific basis.
Research and innovation projects with European partners and competitive calls.
Digital capacities, AI, data, cybersecurity and advanced digital skills.
Vocational training, skills development, cooperation and European excellence networks.
For example, cross-program or regional projects – after reviewing the respective funding logic.
European projects connect different types of organizations.
Capstone can take on different roles.
Organize the idea and funding context before resources are invested in a proposal.
Combining content, consortium, impact and implementation into a robust overall logic.
Take responsibility for the operational and strategic implementation of the project.
Critically review existing project approaches, partner structures, or proposal drafts.
Do you have a project idea or have you already received a call for proposals?
A few bullet points are sufficient for an initial assessment. If a call sign is already known, it can be mentioned directly in the request.
