Tukiviidakon Kompassi™

Your strategic path through the public funding jungle.

Public subsidies are not free money, they’re strategic tools for growth.

We help you plan, apply, and manage funding so that every euro supports your long-term goals.

The Challenge

Public funding can be overwhelming, endless forms, confusing criteria, and uncertain results. Many startups lose valuable time and money chasing the wrong programs or missing payment deadlines.

Our Solution

We guide you through the process step by step, turning chaos into a clear funding strategy. From eligibility assessment to full application support and reporting, we ensure you target the right opportunities and secure your payments smoothly.
