Understanding Your Challenge
Perhaps you've heard that Ireland offers creative industry support but feel uncertain where to begin. The funding landscape includes Screen Ireland, Enterprise Ireland, and other bodies, each with different priorities, criteria, and application processes. Knowing which opportunities suit your project feels overwhelming.
Maybe you've attempted applications but received rejections without clear understanding of why. The feedback was minimal, the criteria felt vague, and you're unsure whether to try again or abandon the idea of funding support entirely.
You might be developing a worthy game project but struggling to articulate it in ways that resonate with funding body priorities. Your vision feels clear to you, but translating it into formal application language that addresses grant criteria seems like an entirely different skill.
Or possibly you simply lack time to research funding opportunities thoroughly. You're focused on development, and navigating the Irish funding landscape feels like another full-time responsibility you cannot manage alongside your actual work.
What you need is someone who understands both game development and the Irish funding landscape, who can guide you through applications without adding more complexity to your already demanding schedule.
Our Funding Guidance Approach
Opportunity Identification
We help identify which Irish funding opportunities align with your project stage, scope, and goals. This involves understanding your development timeline, assessing which bodies support your type of game, and matching you with appropriate programs. Rather than researching every possibility, you'll focus on the opportunities most relevant to your situation.
Application Demystification
We clarify what funding bodies actually seek in applications. This means explaining criteria in practical terms, helping you understand how your project addresses their priorities, and guiding you through required documentation. The process becomes manageable rather than mysterious because you understand what each element needs to accomplish.
Project Presentation Development
We support you in articulating your project effectively for funding contexts. This includes helping you frame your game's cultural relevance, explain your development approach clearly, and present financial planning appropriately. Your vision remains yours, but the presentation aligns with what funding bodies need to understand.
This approach addresses your unique needs by removing the barriers between your project and potential Irish support. You'll understand funding opportunities clearly, navigate applications confidently, and present your work in ways that resonate with grant criteria without compromising your vision.
Your Funding Guidance Journey
Project Assessment
We begin by understanding your game project thoroughly. What are you developing? What stage are you at? What resources do you need? This conversation helps us identify which Irish funding opportunities might support your work and whether applying makes sense for your current situation.
Opportunity Mapping
We'll outline relevant Irish funding opportunities, explaining what each body supports, their typical criteria, and realistic timelines. You'll understand which opportunities to pursue first, what each application involves, and how funding decisions typically work. This clarity helps you make informed choices about where to invest your application efforts.
Application Development
We'll guide you through preparing applications, addressing questions as they arise. This includes reviewing your project descriptions, helping frame cultural relevance appropriately, and ensuring technical requirements are met. You maintain ownership of the application while receiving guidance that increases clarity and confidence.
Submission Support
As you prepare to submit, we'll review your application materials, check that requirements are satisfied, and address any final concerns. If applications require revisions or additional information, we'll help you respond appropriately. You'll feel prepared rather than uncertain when submitting.
Throughout this journey, you'll experience clarity rather than confusion. The Irish funding landscape will feel navigable, applications will seem manageable, and you'll understand what funding bodies seek without feeling like you're decoding bureaucratic mysteries.

The Value Beyond Guidance
This investment brings you more than application support. You're gaining understanding of the Irish creative funding landscape, knowledge of how to present game projects for grant consideration, and confidence navigating bureaucratic processes that previously felt impenetrable.
Emotionally, you'll experience relief from no longer feeling excluded from funding opportunities due to procedural complexity. Practically, you'll access potential support for your project that might otherwise have remained out of reach simply because the application process felt too daunting.
How We Measure Success
Understanding Achievement
We assess whether you understand Irish funding opportunities clearly. Success means you can explain what different bodies support, articulate why specific opportunities suit your project, and understand application requirements without confusion. You feel informed rather than overwhelmed by the landscape.
Application Quality
We evaluate whether your applications address funding criteria effectively. Successful guidance produces applications that present your project clearly, demonstrate understanding of funding priorities, and satisfy technical requirements. You submit with confidence rather than uncertainty about whether you've addressed what matters.
Process Confidence
We monitor whether you feel capable of navigating funding processes. Success looks like reduced anxiety about applications, clearer understanding of requirements, and confidence that you're presenting your project appropriately. The bureaucratic complexity transforms into manageable steps you can approach systematically.
Realistic Timeline
Guidance typically unfolds over 4 to 6 weeks depending on application complexity and funding body deadlines. This allows time for thorough project assessment, opportunity identification, application development, and materials review. We'll establish clear expectations during our initial conversation so you understand the commitment involved and can plan accordingly.
Your Peace of Mind
We understand that seeking funding guidance involves vulnerability. You're sharing your project with someone who will help navigate bureaucratic processes that may determine whether your game receives support. This feels significant, and you need to trust that guidance will genuinely help rather than create additional obstacles.
Our commitment to you is transparent: we'll help you understand Irish funding opportunities and navigate applications effectively, or we'll continue guiding until you feel confident. If explanations remain unclear, if applications still feel overwhelming, or if you're uncertain whether you've addressed requirements appropriately, we'll adjust our approach and provide additional support.
We cannot guarantee funding approval, as those decisions rest with funding bodies evaluating many applications against their specific criteria. What we can promise is that you'll understand the landscape clearly, present your project effectively, and submit applications that address requirements appropriately.
What This Means for You:
- • Initial assessment to determine whether funding guidance would genuinely benefit your project
- • Honest communication about application strengths and areas needing development
- • Additional clarification if any aspect of the process remains confusing
- • Realistic expectations about funding timelines and approval processes
Your satisfaction comes from feeling capable of navigating Irish funding opportunities, not from false promises about outcomes we cannot control.
