“It took us over a year to complete just one application. So, naturally, we were very pleased to find innoscripta, a company that could support us and make the process far more efficient. With the help of their software, we knew exactly which areas we still needed to work on. I can personally highly recommend innoscripta!”

With a futuristic view, the company remains committed to continuous innovation, contributing to a sustainable tomorrow.

The Challenge

Sensorberg places great emphasis on the continuous development of its product portfolio, which naturally requires ongoing research and development backed by significant investment.

In 2022, the company applied for the federal research allowance through an internal process. However, this approach proved to be lengthy and time-consuming. Sensorberg spent more than a year preparing and submitting a single project application. As an innovation-driven company, they remained committed to securing government-backed research funding while avoiding the challenges experienced in the previous year.

The Solution

Collaboration with innoscripta offered a complete solution for every hurdle that Sensorberg faced in approaching the research allowance programme.

Expert guidance from innoscripta's team led to ultimate clarity regarding what needed to be done, and innoscripta's Clusterix software was the true enabler of funding success.

Clusterix supported the key tasks, including:

  • End-to-end project documentation
  • Tracking and setting priorities for upcoming steps and meeting deadlines

This helped Sensorberg reduce the number of follow-up inquiries regarding the submitted applications and respond to requests from the authorities accurately and with the necessary supporting documentation.

The Impact

What is the ultimate outcome of the collaboration? The approved research grant for Sensorberg.

With innoscripta's support, Sensorberg was able to successfully submit applications claiming the research allowance for three projects. In light of the approved funding, Sensorberg recommends innoscripta to any company seeking government research funding and indicates its intention to continue the partnership in the future.
