Past history of successful projects - list references. Budget Use a spreadsheet. Estimate all resources first. Include in-kind funds such as Malaspina's facilities. Get quotations if you cannot properly estimate the cost of equipment.
Appendices Keep to a minimum and only relevant material.
Use bullets to emphasize points instead of using colons in a long sentence. Eliminate jargon and words that are known only to people in your field. Always have someone not involved in the project read the proposal for clarity. Always address the proposal to a person - the contact person for the program or director of the agency. The Technology Transfer Centre is a provincial initiative funded through the Information, Science and Technology Agency .
