Great science loses grants. Bad proposals, not bad research.
You know how to write papers. Evaluators don't read papers — they score proposals. Arvacore turns your science into proposals that evaluators want to fund, and runs the projects you win. Start with a free proposal scorecard.
Win once. Deliver every time. That is the Arvacore difference.
We do not just write proposals and disappear. We stay with consortia from the first draft to the final report — because the real value of a grant is measured in deliverables, not signatures.
About
Built by people who have sat on both sides of an EU grant.
Arvacore works with SMEs, research organisations, universities, and project consortia across Europe. We help teams write stronger proposals, set up projects properly, and run them without the administrative chaos — from Horizon Europe and EIC applications to reporting, dissemination, and IP.
We have written winning proposals inside a university. We have raised and run grants as a deeptech beneficiary. That dual perspective is what makes our clients' projects fundable and deliverable.
Track record
Real projects. Real budgets. Real results.
Our team has helped write, win, and run proposals across European, national, and regional programmes — as proposal writers inside universities and as beneficiaries running funded deeptech projects.

Built for teams with strong science and no proposal machine.
Universities & research institutes
Groups that publish well but lose points on impact and implementation sections.
Deeptech founders & startups
Teams preparing EIC, MSCA-PF, or their first Horizon Europe application.
SMEs entering EU funding
Companies with real technology that need proposals written in evaluator language.
Consortium coordinators
Partners who need management, reporting, and dissemination run properly after the win.
Why us
Experience on both sides of the table.
Arvacore was built by people who have done the work from both sides of an EU project. On one side, writing and supporting proposals inside universities — ERC, MSCA, EIC, and Horizon Europe clusters. On the other, sitting in the beneficiary's chair: raising and running grants, sitting on multi-partner project boards, and living with the reporting, audits, and deliverables that follow.
That is the perspective clients get: proposals written the way evaluators read them, and projects run the way beneficiaries actually have to live with them.
Services
Win the grant. Run it clean.
Six ways we turn a research idea into a funded, deliverable EU project — and keep it out of trouble until the final report.
Proposal writing that gets funded
We write Horizon Europe, EIC and Chips JU proposals the way evaluators actually score them — clear excellence, credible impact, and a bulletproof implementation plan.
Most projects do not fail because of science. They fail because of late deliverables, missed deadlines and poor reporting. We keep the machine running.
The Commission pays on evidence, not promises. We make sure your periodic reports, financial statements and audit trail are clean, complete and on time.
One full pass over your existing draft. We restructure the narrative, sharpen the language, and align the impact and work plan with what evaluators score.
Arvacore supports organizations involved in European and collaborative innovation projects, helping transform technical ideas into structured plans, coordinated work packages, clear dissemination actions, exploitation pathways, and IP-aware execution frameworks.

Approach
No fluff. No generic templates. Just funded, deliverable projects.
01
Evaluator thinking
We write and review proposals the way evaluators read them — clear claims, evidence, and measurable impact.
02
Structure without bureaucracy
We set up the management a project actually needs — no more, no less — so execution stays fast.
03
Technical understanding
We work comfortably with research teams, deep-tech SMEs, and engineering-led organisations.
04
In it for the whole project
From proposal to final report — we stay involved through delivery, not just until the grant is signed.
