Research & Innovation: Partners, Proposals, Management
We find research funding, build partnerships across Greece, the UK and the EU, connect businesses with universities, and take on proposal writing, the ΟΠΣΚΕ coordinator role and project management.
The right partners, the right proposal, the right management.
Research programmes such as Horizon Europe, Greece's "Ερευνώ–Καινοτομώ" (Research–Create–Innovate), ΕΛΙΔΕΚ and regional R&I partnerships fund ambitious ideas. They also demand the right partners, a convincing proposal and rigorous management. Most businesses don't know where to start, while many research labs are looking for companies to take their results to market.
We bridge those two worlds. We connect businesses with universities and research centres, build consortia, write proposals that answer what evaluators look for, and take on administrative and financial management, including the role of ΟΠΣΚΕ project coordinator on Greece's state-aid platform.
The UK advantage: since January 2024 the UK has been associated to Horizon Europe, so UK organisations take part on the same terms as EU ones. With a presence in both countries, we help build Greek–British collaborations.

Frequently asked questions
We are a company with no research experience. Can we take part?
Yes. Many programmes, such as business–research partnerships, are designed exactly for this. We help you find the right research partner and shape the idea together.
What is an ΟΠΣΚΕ coordinator?
In the "Ερευνώ–Καινοτομώ" programme, one natural person is designated per proposal as the project's ΟΠΣΚΕ coordinator. They manage all required actions on Greece's state-aid information system from start to completion, on behalf of the beneficiaries. We take on or support this role, in line with each call's terms.
Can UK partners take part?
In Horizon Europe, yes: since 2024 the UK is an associated country and its organisations take part on the same terms. For Greek national programmes, each call's rules apply.
How do you find university partners?
We start from your need and identify research teams with relevant experience and infrastructure. We set up the first meeting and help you work with the institution's research office (ΕΛΚΕ), which signs the contract.
Who owns the results and IP?
It is set by the programme rules and the consortium agreement. We raise it early and work with specialist lawyers where needed.
