Grannenfelt Finance Oy and Inspiralia Group have entered a partnership agreement, through which Grannenfelt Finance represents Inspiralia Group’s services in Finland, Sweden, and Estonia. With the partnership, Grannenfelt Finance takes a leap in competitiveness in its EU funding services and the first step toward internationalisation.
Inspiralia Group is a leading product development and innovation consultant and an EU grant application advisor in Europe.
EU funding opportunities will grow remarkably during the new Horizon Europe 2021–2027 programme period. During the programme period, over 80 billion euros will be distributed into research, product development, and innovations. The objective of the EU is to promote economic growth, digitalisation, environmental goals, proactive health, and the development of new technology.
During the Horizon Europe period, Grannenfelt Finance aims to offer strong and apt Horizon Europe advisor services to Finnish companies.
”For a longer time already, Grannenfelt Finance has sought a suitable business model to competitively serve our business customers applying for EU grants. Through our collaboration with Inspiralia Group, Grannenfelt Finance’s current and new clients gain access to all the funding opportunities of the new EU programme period”, explains Pasi Kämäri, CEO of Grannenfelt Finance.
The synergetic collaboration with Inspiralia Group fits very well into funding specialist Grannenfelt Finance’s array of services. Ever since it was founded, Grannenfelt Finance has worked versatilely with different funding instruments, and has in five years become one of the leading EU funding advisors in Finland. This collaboration contract further strengthens its aim to support companies and research institutes in applying for EU funding in Finland, Sweden, and Estonia.
The partnership with Inspiralia Group is Grannenfelt Finance’s first step toward internationalisation. The company will strategically collaborate with, among others, the Austrian investment company m27 by offering their services in Finland. This creates a notable opportunity for Finnish companies to access investors in Central Europe through Grannenfelt Finance’s services. Through the collaboration, Grannenfelt Finance strengthens its ability to comprehensively offer EU funding-related business development services and EU grant application process services.
”We are happy that Grannenfelt Finance and Inspiralia Group’s ways of thinking lined up so well, and we are positive that both SMEs and corporations will now succeed even better in accessing Horizon Europe 2021–2027 funding thanks to our collaboration”, says Pasi Kämäri.
