Grant writing can feel like learning a new language - full of jargon, hidden rules, and endless paperwork. In this episode of Creating The Curve, host Anna Bravington chats with Robert Bentley, bid-writing consultant and author, who’s helped businesses secure over £80 million in funding. They unpack the real reasons so many grant applications fail, the biggest mistakes STEM businesses make, and how to make your application appeal to the funders. This episode will explore: The common mistakes STEM businesses make in grant bids Why storytelling (not spreadsheets) wins funding How to get “grant ready” without burning out The pros and cons of using AI to write applications Why your application shouldn’t sound like your product spec sheet Expect practical advice, a healthy dose of humour, and plenty of lightbulb moments - whether you’re new to grants or just tired of writing bids that go nowhere. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by jargon, baffled by bids, or want it to feel less like a chore, this is your episode.
