UK Innovation Funding for Companies
Innovate UK competitions and UK Defence Innovation calls for companies: who can lead, what is open now, and how I write the application.
UK innovation funding reaches companies mainly through competitions: Innovate UK grants and procurement contracts run on the Innovation Funding Service, and defence and security contracts run by UK Defence Innovation. Each competition has its own brief, eligibility and closing time, and most require the funded work to be carried out in the UK. I write Innovate UK and UK Defence Innovation applications.
