How to increase the success rate of your grant applications

Often people get overwhelmed by the different funding opportunities that exist and consequently they don’t focus on the ones that really matter for them and have the more chances for a winning grant application. Here is a technique based on the five fingers that can immediately allow us to identify the most promising call topic for our team, organisation, our colleagues or even our clients and increase the success rate of their grant applications.

In this training moment, I reveal to you that the most attractive call topic(s) that you need to focus and increase your success rate are the one(s) that

Support heavily your mission and vision of your team, organisation or client to be involved in the project
have funded projects in the recent past of similar profile (size, structure, ambition, etc) that you can develop
facilitate the access to funding authority representatives and experts/evaluators for getting feedback
have attractive success rates or indicators
allow sufficient time before their submission deadline for preparing a great grant application.
