EUROGRANT GMBH

Their core work

Eurogrant is a Dresden-based consultancy specializing in EU project management and grant support services. Rather than conducting technical research themselves, they provide administrative, financial, and project coordination expertise to research consortia across vastly different scientific domains. Their portfolio spans neuroscience, ceramic manufacturing, ophthalmology, renewable energy, and audiology — a breadth that signals a horizontal service role rather than deep technical specialization. They help research teams navigate the complexities of Horizon 2020 proposals, reporting, and consortium management.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

Eurogrant's early H2020 involvement (2015-2016) included a mix of manufacturing innovation (CerAMfacturing) and research training networks in vision science and ophthalmology. By 2017, their latest project entry (TIN-ACT) shifted into audiology and tinnitus research training. However, the evolution reflects client acquisition across medical and health research domains rather than a deliberate technical pivot — consistent with a consultancy expanding its client base in MSCA training networks.

Their growing concentration in MSCA training networks suggests they may continue specializing in supporting doctoral and postdoctoral research training programmes across health-related fields.

How they like to work

Eurogrant never leads consortia — all five projects are as participant or third-party partner. They join large, established consortia (57 unique partners across 12 countries) in a support capacity, typically handling project management or administrative work packages. This pattern means working with them is low-risk: they bring operational expertise without competing for scientific leadership, and their broad network can be useful for consortium building.

Despite only five projects, Eurogrant has connected with 57 unique partners across 12 countries — a remarkably wide network for an SME of this size, reflecting the large MSCA training network consortia they participate in. Their base in Dresden positions them in Germany's strong research ecosystem with broad European reach.

What sets them apart

Eurogrant's value lies in their cross-domain flexibility — they can support consortia in any scientific field because their expertise is in EU programme mechanics, not in any single technology. For coordinators building an MSCA training network, they offer proven experience in the specific administrative demands of ITN/ETN schemes. Their Dresden base and SME status can also help consortia meet geographic and SME participation targets.

Highlights from their portfolio

• CerAMfacturing
  Their largest funded project (EUR 229,375) in additive manufacturing of personalized ceramic medical components — shows capacity for innovation actions.
• TIN-ACT
  A large-scale MSCA research school on tinnitus running until 2022, their most recent and longest-duration project involvement.
