We offer a full complement of project management and grant writing services for complex proposals. What makes a proposal “complex”? These projects tend to be interdisciplinary, with multiple research, educational, or outreach components. They may involve a large number of collaborators, or subawards, and tend to offer a larger dollar amount than a typical grant in your discipline.
If you are interested in pursuing a complex funding opportunity but are unsure how to proceed, we're also here to help make connections and build your team.
