There is no fixed success rate, as it depends heavily on the programme, the competition for funding and the quality of the application preparation; reputable consultants therefore do not promise approval, but work to achieve realistically high chances of success. Key factors include a good fit with the programme, a carefully structured application and, where appropriate, the positioning of the project. Across its projects, The Funding Team achieves a significantly above-average success rate and optimises the chances of success by fine-tuning the applications in advance.
