Research, funding, technology and partnerships for growth worldwide.
We combine field research, EU and donor funding expertise, digital solutions and a strong regional network, so our clients get one partner from the first idea to the final evaluation.
For more than 16 years, GC&DA has worked for international donors, government institutions, international companies and private businesses across Kosovo, Albania and the region, in the public and the private sector.

Evidence & evaluation
Investment & funding
Digital & AI
Connections & capacity
Research, strategy, funding, implementation and evaluation, with technology and events supporting every stage.
01 / 05
We start with evidence: field surveys, market studies, focus groups and expert interviews that show what is really happening.
02 / 05
Findings become direction: market-entry plans, digital roadmaps and intervention logic a team can act on.
03 / 05
We match the plan to the right EU, donor or investor resources and write proposals that meet evaluators' expectations.
04 / 05
We help deliver: project management, donor reporting, digital platforms, events and training.
05 / 05
Independent evaluation measures what worked and why, and its lessons feed the next round of research.
Then the loop closes
Results you can measure, and the evidence to show them.
Technology and events run alongside every stage: digital data collection and dashboards for research, platforms for implementation, and conferences and B2B meetings that connect people to opportunities.
