About Us

The Funding Opportunities Advisory Group is a professional network, with extensive experience in developing funding applications (including the creation of consortia for collaborative projects) and project management.

Our Expertise

Our main focus is on public funding, from European and national funding sources. Our consultants are experts in a wide range of business sectors including, but not limited to, ICT/digital, Industry, Energy/Environment and Healthcare.

FOAG’s network of consultants has had a high success rate in securing funding for our clients’ projects. The secret of this success is ensuring that the client does not submit an application until all the essential steps have been completed.

FOAG offers strategic consultancy in support of projects and institutions covering areas such as: market and feasibility studies; business modelling; IPR assessment; marketing and communications; monitoring & evaluation.

A third stream of our work is in donor co-ordination, supporting organisations and public bodies dealing with multiple, international funders. We help maximise the impact of the money received from donors, manage complex reporting requirements, and support clients to build relationships with donors and unlock future opportunities.

Our History

Richard Jones founded RDJ Consultants in January 1998, as an unincorporated network of consultants. In March 2015, we incorporated as RDJ Project Consultants Limited, and continued to trade as RDJ Consultants. In 2018 we started to trade as the Funding Opportunities Advisory Group. In 2019 Richard retired, passing the business to a team of experienced consultants, based across Europe.
