What changed

The money didn’t disappear. It changed shape.

Rich countries cut development aid by nearly a quarter last year. The US cut its own in half.

The money hasn’t gone. It’s being spent differently — as loans, guarantees and investment rather than grants. About $174 billion a year still moves.

The difference is who it goes to. That kind of money needs a business on the other end to put it to work, and most businesses have no idea it’s there.

How a deal is found

The project lives where the maps overlap.

Four pictures of the world, laid over each other. Where they intersect is a deal nobody was looking for.

Real output, unedited

Rwanda's GDELT baseline is the most volatile in the target set (43.9), driven largely by its assertive regional posture including ongoing tensions with DRC over eastern Congo — a direct operational risk for a company whose home base is DR Congo. The mitigation is to incorporate on the Rwandan side early, holding inventory locally so the border is crossed only once per shipment cycle.

Why this is different

The same deal has two endings. Only one gets built.

A €10M processing facility on the Rwanda corridor — the play the engine scored earlier. Follow the money both ways.

Ending 1 — grant onlyNot bankable
EU grant, 30% of costs€3.0M
Everything else€7.0M

The company cannot carry €7M. The grant is returned unused and the facility is never built. This is what an unclaimed grant actually looks like.

Ending 2 — blendedCOVERED: €3.0M / €10M
Catalytic grant3.0M
EU NDICI takes the first risk
Guarantee2.0M
EFSD+ absorbs first loss, which unlocks…
Senior debt3.5M
FMO lends against the guarantee
Equity1.5M
COFIDES completes the stack

A €3M grant alone doesn't build a €10M facility. Add the piece that changes the math.

Common questions

Questions we hear often.

EU grants feel complex and bureaucratic

We handle the process end to end — compliance, application, follow-up. Our platform pre-qualifies your company so we focus on opportunities you can realistically win.

We do not know how to find international contracts

That is exactly what the origination engine is for. It scans EU, US federal, World Bank and bilateral donor pipelines daily and surfaces relevant matches automatically.

We have never worked with EU funders before

Most European SMEs have not. We include entry-level pathways — subcontracting roles, technical assistance contracts — designed for companies entering the market for the first time.

We do not have capacity to manage complex projects

Our Project Management and Reporting modules handle the compliance burden — milestone tracking, M&E, donor reports — so your team can focus on delivery.
