Transparent process
Up to 80% of your consulting costs as a grant – we handle the application
Depending on where your business is based, the grant is 80 percent (up to €2,800) or 50 percent (up to €1,750) of the eligible consulting costs. It is calculated on the assessment basis of at most €3,500, not on the total project cost. We check which rate applies to your location in advance – and we take care of the application.

Frequently asked questions about fundraising
How long does a funding round take?
From preparation to closing usually takes four to nine months. Preparation – equity story, financial plan, data room – takes six to ten weeks, the investor process itself three to six months. Starting without solid numbers mainly stretches out due diligence.
When should you start fundraising?
At nine to twelve months of runway at the latest. Start at six months and you negotiate under time pressure – the most expensive negotiating position there is. Investors spot it reliably from the pace at which you chase meetings.
Which documents do I need for a round?
A pitch deck, an integrated financial plan covering P&L, balance sheet and cash, a cap table, at least two years of historical figures, cohort and unit economics, and a prepared data room with contracts, shareholder resolutions and annual accounts.
Do you also take on individual parts of the process?
Yes. Companies often arrive with one specific building block: the financial plan, the equity story, the data room or investor outreach. Each can be commissioned on its own – the sensible order is numbers first, then story, then outreach.
Do you work on a success-fee basis?
The engagement is billed as a project or on an agreed day rate and workload, in individual cases with a success-based component on top. We do not offer purely success-based fees: they create an incentive to close every round – including the ones better left unclosed.
What makes you different from an M&A boutique?
We come from the finance function, not from the transaction business. That means the financial plan an investor reviews comes from the same hand that sets up the reporting – and therefore stands up to due diligence more often.
