Several of us at
MATRIX45
spent part of our careers in academic research. We too know the
challenges of identifying sponsors, whether government agencies, private
foundations, or corporations ... responding to program announcements and
requests-for-proposals ... bridging the (often long) time between proposal
submission, review and feedback, and funding ... the cycles of submission,
revisions, and resubmissions ...
In their academic quests,
our principals have been successful in
attracting several millions of dollars of funding for research, health
services development, and dissemination. Further, they have helped
colleagues obtain millions of dollars of funding to support their
activities.
Sponsors have included the
National Institutes of Health (USA), other USA government agencies,
foreign governments; the largest foundations as well as some smaller
"niche" foundations; and corporations in the USA and abroad.
Importantly, we know how to
target proposals to the different classes of sponsors. They all have
different cultures, different agendas, different modes of working
with "grantees", and different expectations as to outcomes and
deliverables.
MATRIX45
can help you outline your funding program, design your funding strategy,
develop or critique your proposals, prepare for site visits, and script
your "pitches".
