Concierge is Sprout Scientific's proprietary service in which we hand-select relevant grant, tender, and/or support priorities that are aligned with your business and projects. Each fortnight, you will receive an emailed report containing a prioritised opportunity list, upcoming industry events, industry-specific news, and government updates. This comprehensive report allows you to stay on top of opportunities as they open and better understand your sector's broader state of affairs.

We comb through several grant and tender databases each fortnight to identify relevant opportunities for you. This includes funding and tender opportunities on a Federal, State, and Local Government level, as well as those from private foundations, corporations, or institutions. We also include support, mentoring, and training opportunities, tax incentives, and government subsidy or rebate programs.

Our Concierge Service provides you with access to a wide range of opportunity types and funding amounts without needing to devote hours to scanning databases. The ability to refocus on your business goals and growth plans while still staying on top of the grant and tender spaces will give you a competitive advantage over others who need to take time out of their primary business activities to search for funding opportunities. We have also found that applicants who have more time to get their “ducks in a row” submit more competitive applications - being notified of upcoming opportunities 2-4 weeks in advance will give you the time to put together a compelling argument. Industry and government-related news summaries will provide a better understanding of the current and future funding and regulation landscapes, and upcoming industry events can provide an opportunity to expand your professional network, establish new partnerships, and stay abreast of the latest innovations in your sector.

We first have a kick-off meeting to understand your business, mission, goals, and projects. With this information, we comb through our grant and tender databases to select opportunities that have a direct nexus to your business and activities. We like to keep an open mind, and will also send you opportunities where you would need to partner with another entity, who would be the lead applicant.
