GRANT ADVICE SINCE 1995
The story of FirstBlue grant consultancy
Our story starts in 1995, when Marc Geulen founded Hezelburcht in Nijmegen. At the time, Hezelburcht started as a one-man business, but soon expanded to five branches as the market leader in the Netherlands. However, Hezelburcht’s growth did not stop at the Dutch border. In 2012, Hezelburcht opened a branch in the political heart of Europe: Brussels. Meanwhile, Hezelburcht was already attracting customers from different parts of Europe and the rest of the world
To strengthen our international position, we have introduced our new name with the opening of our German branch: FirstBlue. As FirstBlue Grant Consultancy, we maintain the existing market identity and offer the grant advice you have come to expect from us. With FirstBlue, we are expanding our services internationally. Since 2025, we have also been active in the Belgian market with FirstBlue.
