Real outcomes from founders and organizations who have worked with Labyrinth Consulting.
Stronger and More Successful Grant Applications
“I had the pleasure of working for Sarah from 2022 to mid 2024 at VisionQuest Biomedical Inc., but even prior to that, we had been utilizing her exceptional writing skills to help us win a large percentage of our NIH SBIR grants. During that tenure, Sarah was a huge asset to my awarded Phase I grant. Looking for follow on funding, creating marketing material, presenting at conferences, developing an outstanding business plan . . . She did everything in her power to make sure the project was a success and I have no doubt that she will incorporate that drive into all of her future projects. Highly recommend if you or your company has any of these needs!”
— Jeffrey Wigdahl, PhDClarity in Navigating Complex Funding Processes
“I could not have received my government grant without Sarah Soliz! She has a knack for interpreting the often convoluted questions required in the grant process. You might think grants are easier because of AI but you still need someone who has that hard-earned experience to decipher the strategy. She is a joy to work with and has what it takes that no AI could beat!”
— Sandra Hirschberg, MBAEnd to End Guidance From Strategy to Submission
“I met Sarah several years ago and always appreciated our business conversations. When we needed help pursuing non-dilutive funding and grant writing recently, we reached out to Sarah and Labyrinth. Sarah helped us identify our best option for an SBIR grant. She helped guide us and managed the whole process through to submission. She did an amazing job project managing, writing, and reviewing. We will absolutely continue to work with Sarah on future submissions and recommend her to anyone working on non-dilutive funding and grant preparation and submissions.”
