About — Independent EU Funding Consultancy

Independent EU Funding Consultancy

We help ambitious organisations write winning proposals for Horizon Europe, Digital Europe and adjacent EU programmes. We find the right calls and craft submissions that actually stand out.

Why SFP exists

EU funding faces record submission volumes, success rates below 12% and generic AI-written proposals. After six years inside the European innovation ecosystem, SFP saw organisations waste time on poorly matched calls, administration and last-minute consortia. SFP was built to fix that: we align capabilities with what EU programmes are actually trying to achieve, producing proposals evaluators notice.

Our services

SFP Discovery; SFP Analysis; Proposal Builder; Proposal Builder Plus.

What we believe

Judgement and evaluator insight beat speed and volume; three strong calls beat thirty mediocre ones; strong proposals need time to think; consortium building is strategic; AI amplifies human expertise; UK organisations have full Horizon Europe participation rights since 2023.

How we work

AI accelerates the first draft, then the Human Pivot Point brings in experts and senior consultants for strategy, insight and real impact. We co-author; we don't take over. The final proposal reflects your knowledge and our EU funding craft.
