Challenge

The DLT4EU Accelerator was designed to stimulate the development of cutting-edge DLT-based applications that address pressing social and environmental challenges. It sought to connect DLT companies to public sector organisations with relevant challenges to build real-word use cases.

Our Role & Impact

We developed a finance and fundraising support proposal to provide access for the Venture Team startups to expert advice to develop their funding strategy and roadmap, in order to progress their proof-of-Concepts.

We ran a bespoke process that recognised and adapted to their unique circumstances to;

• Identify relevant, European-based funding routes (competition type, funding amounts, date, etc);

• Support teams to develop grant funding projects using Urban Frontier’s Innovation Funding Canvas;

• Create roadmaps for how the Venture Teams to develop their grant funding strategies (i.e. timeline, target funding sources, applicant required);

• Provide detailed feedback on existing funding applications to improve resubmission success rates.
