Public funding is crucial for keeping our R&D knowledge up-to-date. Due to our experience with several European countries and EU funding schemes, we know how to engage partners, create consortia, manage all parties involved and ultimately write a successful technical (and financial) proposal. In this process, our partnership with Dutch experts on this field, FBS, is crucial and elevates blueOASIS® capabilities to the best in Europe in this field, with a very large track record and success rate.
