We’re looking to support relatively significant projects with a value of around £10k which would attract a grant of £3k. Eligible projects include those that lead to job creation, help to develop new products or services and bring them to market, plus drive up productivity. To apply for funding, you’ll need to speak to one of our specialist advisors. First they’ll check you’re eligible to receive support from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), then they’ll visit you on-site to understand more about your growth ambitions and the steps you want to take to deliver those ambitions. Businesses benefitting from the 30% grant will need to fund 70% of the consultancy project themselves.
