The firm specialises in EU and national funding advisory, strategic regional development planning, feasibility studies, cost-benefit analyses, grant application preparation, end-to-end project management, and creative/marketing services. Its service portfolio is structured around four named modules — FundLab, FundPlan, FundDelivery, and FundSecurity — covering opportunity identification, planning, delivery, and compliance/state-aid dimensions of the funding cycle. BeePartner also operates proprietary digital products including robee (a web-based EU funding search application), FundInfo 4.0 (an internal project and funding pipeline management system), the FUTUREUM cultural and creative centre in Dolní oblast Vítkovice (acquired 2017, opened 2022), and regional EU information contact centres Brusselská linka and OK linka.

BeePartner monetises primarily through quote-based, multi-year professional-services engagements; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The firm has accumulated approximately 35-40+ named staff across management, consulting, project management, IT, marketing, and BackOffice functions, and publicly claims 30 billion CZK in cumulative client funding secured since inception and 2-3 billion CZK obtained annually for clients.

Scale indicators11 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• PwC Czech Republic: PwC's CEE public-sector practice competes for EU funding strategy and grant management work alongside its audit and tax business. Comparable as a broad incumbent with overlapping client base (ministries, large enterprises) but with a different delivery model and price point.
• Deloitte Czech Republic: Deloitte's Government & Public Services and Sustainability practices in Prague address EU funds, just transition and regional development. Comparable incumbent with broader portfolio but weaker Moravian-Silesian regional penetration.
• BDO Czech Republic: BDO's Czech advisory practice includes grant management, EU funds and public-sector consulting. Mid-tier incumbent competing for similar SME and municipal grants work, with broader accounting and tax portfolio.
• EY Czech Republic: EY's Government & Public Sector and EY-Parthenon practices in Czech Republic cover EU funds and structural reform advisory. Comparable broad incumbent competing for larger framework contracts while BeePartner wins smaller, regional mandates.
• KPMG Czech Republic: KPMG's Czech practice includes a Government & Public Sector advisory offering that competes for EU funds and structural project mandates. It is a broad incumbent rather than a specialist: larger, more diversified, but less embedded in regional government relationships than BeePartner.

Regional players

• ÖIR GmbH: Austrian institute for spatial planning and regional development, working on EU cohesion evaluation, INTERREG and smart specialisation. Comparable as a specialised regional-development consultancy in a neighbouring market, with similar public-sector and EU programme focus but limited overlap in Czechia.

Direct peers

• VVA Consulting: Brussels-based consultancy specialised in EU cohesion policy, evaluation and structural funds advisory. Direct peer in EU funds consulting with similar narrow specialisation and EU-policy access, focused on EU-level and member-state work.
• Spatial Foresight: Luxembourg-based consultancy specialised in EU cohesion policy, territorial development and smart specialisation. Direct peer with similar niche focus on regional development strategy for EU institutions and member-state authorities.
• t33 Srl: Italy-based consultancy specialising in EU structural funds, smart specialisation (S3) and public-sector innovation. Direct peer with overlapping expertise in regional innovation strategy, RIS3 and EU programme design, comparable in size and specialisation.

Emerging players

• Ayming: Pan-European advisory firm (formerly Alma Consulting) specialised in innovation funding, R&D tax credits and EU grants. Comparable in productised grant-adjacent advisory with similar SME and corporate target clients across multiple EU member states.
