More than 80% of start-ups we consulted
I am Dr. Vijay Verma, Austria's leading expert on funding for start-ups and SMEs. My team and I look forward to advising you on funding issues!
With our highly qualified technical, business, and financial experts, we'll help you to improve your overall project concept so that it fits perfectly to funding requirements.
When working with you, we'll follow three key steps:
1. We will study your project, technical innovations, plans for product/process development, and financial needs for next 2-5 years.
2. We will investigate all the funding options for you and suggest the BEST funding type for you and your project at its current stage.
3. We will work together with you to develop your project concept and prepare your grant applications.
This is how the first consultation works (duration: 50 min.)
The first meeting is a great opportunity for you:
What it is definitely NOT

FAQ – Transparency in everything we do.
Pure value. No fluff.
Over the years, Dr. Verma has developed a unique set of skills in the field of funding. Usually, it only takes him a couple of minutes to evaluate the potential of your start-up. Within an hour you will gain deep insights on your chances and even a clear path on what to do next. There will be only one decision left for you to take once all is said and done: Will you go forward with the Dharma Funding Solutions team, or will you try it on your own?
No matter your decision: Whatever you have learnt from Dr. Verma is yours to use.
Well actually, you don't.
I would see our services as more of an insurance – you talk with us so that you are certain that none of the many funding options, available in Austria and EU, are looked over. We also ensure that your application is as good as it gets, that you have a sound funding strategy, and finally that you take the right steps, at the right time, with the right institutions. In fact, many founders try to do it "on their own" – and there is nothing wrong with that. Some succeed, some get back to us, and we are happy to work with them. Forever lost however, is the time that they invested, the frustrations they had to go through, and sometimes, you're not even allowed to apply for a specific funding more than once.
We have a start-up-friendly business model, your first investment usually depends on a couple of factors.
The business model of Dharma Funding Solutions is not built on the "first funding", but on the – hopefully much larger ones after that (Series A, B, C ...). We see this first investment as a purposely-made barrier for entrepreneurs and start-up founders: If they are serious about their venture they will find a way to raise the funds they need. If they value their time, energy, and effort they will probably not spend their time making phone calls, researching, and googling for weeks just to lose their investment.
