Proposal writing

A complete proposal, written by a senior team and submitted on time.

We write the proposal and draw the scientific and technical content from your experts: objectives, state of the art, methodology, work plan, risks and budget.

Every EU proposal is led by a senior proposal writer with more than ten years of experience. On average, each collaborative proposal has two senior consultants, an administrative assistant and a senior editor.

The service includes

  • Analysis of the call topic and validation of your idea
  • Writing strategy and full writing of the proposal
  • Budget design and negotiation with partners
  • Partner search and consortium coordination
  • Technical meetings with the partners
  • Administrative support during preparation
  • Submission on time and in the required form
  • Grant and consortium agreements if the project is funded

Also covered by the team

  • GDPR, legal and ethics issues from the proposal stage
  • Advice on clinical trials and data management
  • Business plan, financial plan, pitch deck and one-pager for companies
  • Consultants with experience as EU proposal evaluators

Funding by stage
In my experience, Matical differentiate themselves from other similar consultancies by co-creating a clear vision of the proposal from the start, then working systematically to identify and build a consortium that can deliver on this vision. They are collaborative, communicative and professional, and a valuable partner in our proposal processes.
