How did you come up with the idea of founding CWC Consulting and what is its mission?

CWC was born out of the pressing need of small and medium sized European companies to improve their ability to assert their interests and enter the European market in a competitive way.

What services do you offer and for which type of clients?

We offer a customised range of services to each of our clients to enhance their presence in Europe. From administrative and legal services for the management of their offices in Brussels, monitoring and participation in legislative dossiers, as well as institutional management with European policy makers. Our star service, however, is advice on European tenders and projects to which they can access in order to expand and optimise their service provision.

What types of European projects do you specialise in?

We work on all types of tenders and with all the different funding funds available, with years of accumulated experience in achieving projects within Horizon Europe, the Life programme, the CERV programme, the Creative Europe programme, as well as Erasmus +, among others.

You also offer training courses for companies and other organisations, what are the topics that are most in demand in your experience?

Our trainings are aimed at enabling the teams of each company and institution to understand and navigate the complex landscape of European funding programmes, with the aim of making them autonomous and competent in the preparation, implementation and justification of their European projects. We offer specific training to discover the immense range of funding possibilities available for each European fund as well as practical training in the drafting, management and reporting of specific projects.

What can you offer to other Chamber members and what would you like to achieve through your membership?

Chamber membership is an excellent opportunity for networking and business development. Our contribution is key to improve the competitiveness of companies in terms of partnership with the Institutions and accessibility to new growth opportunities thanks to the financing possibilities that Europe makes available.
