R&D Planning & Strategy
From research idea to funded project.
Strong research needs funding to happen. We help investigators, hospitals, and companies turn a research idea into a competitive proposal for Korean government R&D programs and procurement-based projects — and support execution once the project is awarded.

What makes a national R&D proposal competitive
Read Article →Why it matters
National R&D funding is competitive and procedurally demanding. A strong idea can still fail on a weak proposal — misaligned with the call's objectives, an unconvincing methodology, or an incomplete consortium. Korean programs run through ministries (MOHW, MOTIE, MSIT, MFDS) and agencies (KDDF, KHIDI, NRF, KEIT), each with distinct objectives, evaluation criteria, and reporting requirements. Positioning a proposal against the right call is often the difference between funded and not.
What we offer
- Funding opportunity identification — matching the research to the right program and call
- Government R&D grant proposal development — research plan, objectives, and milestones
- Government e-procurement (KONEPS) service-contract proposal support
- Consortium formation and industry–academia–hospital partner matching
- Research methodology and study design at the core of the proposal
- Budget planning and feasibility assessment
- Awarded-project execution support — IRIS / NTIS reporting and performance management
How we work
We start with the research idea and the target program, then build the proposal backward from the call's objectives and evaluation criteria. The biostatistical and clinical methodology that anchors our other work strengthens the research plan at the heart of every proposal — and we can stay on through execution and reporting once a project is awarded.
