Freelancer profile translated to English.
Back to original languageAbout Ivan
Are you developing a high-impact project (media, cultural initiative, local project, third place or social economy) but are you struggling with strengthening its economic model or finding funding?
Projects from the Cultural and Creative Industries (CCI) and the media increasingly need hybrid economic models that are often complex to stabilize. As a project engineering expert, I help you transform your concepts into solid, profitable, and fundable structures.
My profile combines a sharp mastery of cultural policies and the specific challenges of your sector with a pragmatic, results-oriented approach.
My 4 key areas of intervention:
💰 Financing Strategy & Fundraising: Targeted monitoring, search for public and private funding. I handle the preparation of your grant applications, responses to calls for projects (local, national, and European programs) to maximize your chances of success.
📈 Structuring Economic Models: Development of growth strategies, creation of business plans, and diversification of your revenue streams to sustain your activity (consulting, training, new offers, development strategy...).
💡 Seeding & Design of Programs: Structuring complex projects and cultural engineering. I support you in designing new support programs, incubators, training, or specific programs for your region.
🏗️ Feasibility Studies: Do you want to launch or rethink a project? I can manage the opportunity study, market research, and modeling.
For whom?
I support stakeholders in the social economy, cultural and creative industries, media, or public structures.
