Enterprise Fund

The Enterprise Fund is about developing those young businesses that need assistance in taking the next step in their growth plan.  This may be funding towards a new piece of equipment, developing I.T. infrastructure, implementing a significant marketing campaign, product and design development and so forth. This fund is aimed at supporting businesses, with a track record of two years or less, to address barriers to growth using innovative approaches.  

Businesses can apply for 100% of project costs up to a maximum of £5000.  The total cost of the project must not exceed £10,000.

The Enterprise Fund 2021 opens on Monday 12th April and closes at noon on Friday 14th May 2021.
