SCOUTING

Successful innovation doesn’t usually come by chance – there is a strategy and a plan behind it. Most companies don’t have their own in-house EU funding experts – or if they do – it is usually a side task. An ambitious company needs a portfolio of research and innovation projects as lifeline for its strategic development. But how to access the right public funding to support this without in-house expertise?

RTDS offers a tailored Scouting service to plan your R&I strategy and projects to ensure your company is getting the best out of EU funding and collaboration networks.
