Grant consulting and application preparation
I bring extensive hands-on experience in research and innovation project development and proposal writing. I currently work under enovation, an international innovation and funding consultancy, where I support organisations and consortia in the preparation and delivery of European, national, and international grant-funded projects.
EU Horizon Programmes (Horizon 2020 & Horizon Europe)
-
Projects like PLURAL, ENDURCRETE, and EENSULATE focused on innovative materials for energy-efficient buildings, including prefabricated facades, durable concrete, and high-performance insulation.
POWERSKIN, and VEEP, explored advanced sustainable building solutions, while RE4 and FISSAC promoted circular construction through waste reuse and industrial symbiosis. DOMOS explored smart energy systems for modern buildings.
-
Energy storage innovations included CREATE, advancing thermal storage systems, and SCORES, enhancing hybrid systems for renewable energy use. TREASURE demonstrated large-scale pit thermal energy storage, while REVEAL pioneered a carbon-free aluminum energy cycle.
TEAPOTS explored agricultural waste for renewable energy, driving sustainability in the agri-food sector.
-
Circular economy projects like APOLLO focused on recycling photovoltaic modules to enhance sustainability in solar energy systems, while REUSE revolutionized recycling practices for low-value LFP battery waste.
These projects supported resource efficiency and promoted the circular economy in energy-related industries.
-
HERIT4AGES developed retrofitting solutions for cultural heritage buildings, balancing energy efficiency and historical preservation. CARBON4MINERALS transformed CO₂ into sustainable construction materials, supporting eco-friendly building practices and climate goals.
FOREST advanced lightweight materials for energy-efficient structures, promoting innovation in sustainable construction.

European Innovation Council
I have contributed to EIC Pre-Accelerator, EIC Accelerator, and EIC Pathfinder proposals by supporting the development of clear and coherent project narratives, with a focus on impact, value proposition, exploitation pathways, and communication of innovation potential.
Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions
I have contributed to Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA), including Doctoral Network proposals, through proposal review and feedback, focusing on impact, dissemination and communication, training logic, and alignment with MSCA evaluation criteria. My role involved assessing clarity, coherence, and evaluator perspective, helping strengthen proposals prior to submission. This review work was delivered under enovation.
I have contributed to Czech national funding programme - TWIST II, by co-authoring one full proposal and reviewing one additional submission. My work focused on proposal structure and clarity, impact and implementation logic, and alignment with national funding priorities and evaluation criteria.
