For biotech, MedTech and health innovation founders who need a clear, expert-led roadmap on grants, patent strategy, CE/MDR compliance, company formation and entering Germany or the EU — without costly mistakes.
Not because their science is weak — because their strategy is wrong from the start.
Applications submitted before the proposal is competitive. Evaluators reject — not because of weak science, but poor structure, narrative and positioning.
Founders spend significant capital on patents that add no commercial value because IP is not aligned with the business model, funding timeline or regulatory pathway.
CE/MDR, EXIST, ZIM, WIPANO, EUIPO SME Fund — these instruments save time and money. Most founders have never heard of them or how to access them.
International founders and academics with innovations lack the legal, notarial and IP infrastructure to set up properly in Germany — the right way, from day one.
No hourly billing. No vague scope. You know exactly what you receive before you commit.
Most consultants hold one specialism. I have worked across all five — and used each one personally over a 10-year career in Germany.
Secured across EUREKA, Eurostars, ZIM, BMBF, DFG and related instruments. I know what evaluators require and where most applications fall short.
Two European patents filed in 2026 plus WIPANO and EUIPO SME Fund vouchers used personally. Real experience, not theoretical knowledge.
Compliance strategy owned from concept through regulatory submission for a CE-class MedTech product built and launched in Germany.
IP lawyers, patent attorneys at competitive rates, notaries and tax advisors — all pre-vetted and ready to support your company formation or IP filing.
I help clients access grants that cover part of their own patent filing costs. WIPANO (BMBF federal programme) reimburses up to 50% of patent attorney and filing costs for eligible SMEs and researchers. EUIPO SME Fund vouchers cover EU trademark and design protection costs. I have used both personally and can guide your application — meaning my advisory fee frequently pays for itself through the funding I help you unlock. Most founders have never heard of either programme.

A specialist pathway for academics at German institutions — EXIST application, university IP licensing, spin-off formation and beyond. Priced €1,500 to €4,000.
Understand ownership, what can be filed personally and how to structure a licensing arrangement before any external filing or commercialisation step.
Gründerstipendium (up to €150k, 18 months) or Forschungstransfer for deep tech. I know the evaluation criteria and common failure points at each stage.
Company structure, co-founder arrangement, shareholder framework and governance — all mapped before you engage a notary. Notary connections provided.
