GHAssociates is a specialist consultancy, assisting businesses and other organisations in the acquisition of grant funding for research and development.

In the EU Seventh Framework Programme (2007 to 2013) alone, there is a proposed budget of over €50 billion for research projects. The problems faced by companies involved in R&D are:

• Sourcing and evaluating available EU and UK funding opportunities
• Identifying and developing co-operative relationships with research partners
• Preparing and submitting funding applications
• Project and partner management
• Project reporting

GHA has extensive knowledge and experience in EU-based and other funding programmes for R&D, providing project development and application submission expertise, partner acquisition and management and project management to companies and organisations from SME to multinational.

We have offices in the UK, Brussels, Australia and Canada ensuring that we are able to provide a range of resources to support the needs of our clients wishing to participate in the European funding programmes.

At GHAssociates we pride ourselves on being experts in reading the small print and guiding you through the maze of requirements to be met when submitting an application to the EU Commission and when carrying out the projects. We strive to deliver the right funding route for your organisation and are keen to work with you, leaving you confident and free to run your business.
