We specialise in early-stage strategy, positioning and support  - particularly through ESA’s ACCESS and BASS pathways - helping founders, startups and project teams understand where they fit, what’s viable, and how to move forward with confidence.
 
Whether you’re exploring an idea, reviving a stalled application, or figuring out your next move, Tin Rocket brings clarity, structure and momentum.

How we Work

THIS IS

01

Application Process Guidance

Tin Rocket supports businesses through the ESA application process, from eligibility and APQ development to structured review and submission readiness - helping you reduce risk and submit with confidence.

02

Business Case Support

A strong application starts with a strong business case. Tin Rocket supports the development of your commercial narrative, helping you clearly define the opportunity, value proposition, and route to impact that sits behind your ESA application.

03

APQ Reviews

Tin Rocket provides structured review and feedback on your Application Proposal Questionnaire (APQ), helping you strengthen clarity, coherence, and alignment with ESA assessment criteria. Reviews can be iterative, giving you the opportunity to refine and improve your submission before it’s evaluated.

Client Testimonials

Martin Stanley - Green Coordinate

All submitted. Thank you so much for your help and support with this process, you’ve been invaluable.

Jarnail Chudge - SSGC

Once again, thank you for all your support and guidance through this process; our application was so very much better thanks to you, and we'll take a lot out of the process regardless of the outcome. 

Eleftherios Plafountzis - Prometheus Space Technologies

"You challenged weaknesses in the proposal, explained why they mattered, and helped us see how we could present a much stronger and more credible case. That kind of support gives a small team both direction and renewed strength to keep pushing against doors that previously seemed firmly closed."
