German term or phrase: größer dimensionierte Projekte
Auftritt als Gesellschafter von xxx zur Gewinnung von ***größer dimensionierten Projekten*** als dies oft als Einzelkämpfer möglich ist

ich nehme an, damit sind einfach "groessere Projekte" gemeint, komme aber einfach nicht zu einer guten Uebersetzung, wenn mir damit jemand helfen kann?

agree  Francis Lee (X): or possibly "scope", but I think "scale" is best here

agree  Ralf A. Schumacher: Finde "scale" hier schön adäquat, weil so das "dimensioniert" nicht ganz wegfällt. Allerd. sollte (da hat Teresa recht!) die Komparativfunktion nicht übersehen werden. Daher etwa: "projects on a larger scale than would be ppssible for mere individuals"
