Questions about applications?
How long does it take to prepare a PEPAC application?
It depends on how complex the project is, but on average we prepare a complete application in 3 to 6 weeks. The earlier you get in touch before the call opens, the stronger the case we can build.
What is your success rate on applications?
Our approval rate is over 90%. We always run an eligibility check first and only go ahead with applications that stand a real chance of approval.
How much does the application consultancy service cost?
The initial eligibility check is free and comes with no obligation. The preparation service combines a fixed fee with a success fee, set according to the investment and the programme. We always give you the quote before starting.
What documents do I need to start the application?
To get going, all we need is the applicant's details and an idea of the investment you have in mind. As we go, we guide you through gathering the rest - certificates, investment plan, quotes and financial statements.
