Customer testimonial
The feedback from Julien HOLGARD
What opportunities for European aid did you have?
The opportunity was for the innovation department to work on projects that are really at the cutting edge of what can be done. European projects are where we see the greatest advances and the most advanced technologies. These programs enable us to obtain partial funding from the European Commission, thus avoiding having to finance everything from our own resources. It's a real opportunity, especially as this funding is very advantageous, covering around 60 to 70 % of project costs.
Should I be accompanied?
I wouldn't recommend going it alone, as the European funding ecosystem is a veritable millefeuille of programs. While this diversity means you can always find the right program for your project, it also requires specific expertise. That's why it's essential to surround yourself with professionals who are familiar with these schemes, know their specific features and can effectively guide you towards the most relevant opportunities.
How did the G.A.C. Group experts guide you?
They're true experts, there's no other way to put it. They know what they're doing, where to go and how to get companies there. Their support has been crucial in helping us structure our projects, understand financing requirements and maximize our chances of success. There's a real follow-up and knowledge that is indispensable, both for those who are new to these schemes and for those who have already set up numerous European projects. You always get something extra when you benefit from this type of assistance.
Your experience in three words?
"Audacity", because you have to dare to take the plunge, despite your fears.
"Success", because these projects have transformed our strategy at Vilogia.
"Partnership", because these collaborations have opened up new opportunities, well beyond European funding.
