Dresden: Eurogrant GmbH, the specialist for funding for research and development, is celebrating the tenth anniversary of the company today. "We have grown organically during this time and are pleased about the positive development of recent years." Managing Director Dr. Katharina Sabellek said on the occasion of the company anniversary.

The track record is impressive: Since 2009, numerous project applications have been successfully managed for customers in Germany and abroad in several EU, federal and provincial programs and funds totaling € 97.45 million have been raised. The total volume of these approved projects amounted to € 166.10 million. All employees have a university education of different subjects. They look after companies, scientific institutions and public bodies to attract public funding, primarily in federal and EU programs for research and development.

Eurogrant helps its clients to seize the opportunities and benefits of public project funding. The financing of - in any case - planned project projects by the public sector, above all, offers the opportunity to find other project partners than usual. In particular, the involvement of scientists - who conduct basic research - empowers companies to go beyond previous possibilities in their ideas and considerations. The direct involvement of researchers in product development enables real innovation leaps.

Eurogrant does not specialize in content issues but in the specific way in which project proposals must be prepared and formulated to be successful in the assessment. The customer benefit is thus in a higher success rate and relief in the application process. The use of public project funding requires experience and competence. "But you can not overlook all the programs. The key to success lies in the specialization. ", Katharina Sabellek is convinced.

Remember, today we celebrate Europe Day – a double reason to celebrate!

In November 2017, the Horizon2020 project "Research School for TINnitus Assessment, Causes and Treatments" (TIN-ACT) which is coordinated by the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG), was launched. Eurogrant supported the Dutch coordinator and its seven partners from Denmark, France, Germany and the United Kingdom by coordinating the negotiation of the consortium agreement. The project lasts 4 years and has a budget of 4 million euros, which is fully paid by the European Commission. During its lifetime, Eurogrant offers training courses for PhD students in project management and business start-up.

In the project to study tinnitus, the researchers want to elucidate the biological mechanisms that form the basis for its formation. A total of 15 doctoral students will be trained to find out what causes tinnitus, methods for detecting tinnitus and possible treatments.
