How it works
Start with the project, not a generic list of grants.
A1 first checks the business and project facts that materially affect eligibility. Only where a credible current route exists do we recommend moving into the paid Funding Map.
Funding Map
For each credible route: official source, fit rationale, key conditions, evidence requirements, unresolved questions and next action.
See sampleApplication preparation
Where requested, A1 can organise the narrative, evidence checklist, budget assumptions and submission steps around the selected route.

A funding route you can act on.
The sample shows how a real investment project is screened into potential support routes, eligibility checks, evidence requirements and a recommended next action.
Current sourcesRecommendations are checked against official scheme information at delivery time.
Project specificThe map is built around the actual investment, not a static grant list.
Spend timing mattersCommitted or completed expenditure can change eligibility and is checked early.
No award guaranteeA1 does not promise eligibility, approval or funding outcomes.
Common questions
Before you buy a Funding Map.
Should I pay before the eligibility check?
No. Complete the free eligibility form first. The €129 Funding Map is appropriate only where at least one credible current route remains after screening.
What kinds of projects can be screened?
Typical enquiries include expansion, equipment, digitalisation, exporting, sustainability, process improvement and product development.
Does A1 submit the application?
Application support can be scoped separately where appropriate, but the Funding Map itself focuses on route selection, requirements, evidence and next steps.

If a credible current route is identified, you can then purchase the €129 Funding Map securely through A1 Commerce.
