First Thursday - 4 September: Grants Made Simple (and Useful!)

Join us for First Thursday Networking Session in September, where we’re thrilled to welcome Ben Hutchinson and Matt Young, our Grant Writers-in-Residence from BAM Innovation, for an energising and informative talk that no start-up should miss!

Grants can be a game-changer - but where do you start? Ben and Matt will give a quick and practical introduction to grant funding, focusing on Innovate UK and NIHR opportunities. They’ll take us on a whistlestop tour of how to make grants work for your start-up, share top tips for writing a winning application, and explain how the Innovation Centre and Grant Writers-in-Residence can support you along the way.

Whether you’ve never considered applying for a grant or you’re already knee-deep in funding applications, this is a great chance to learn something new, ask questions, and connect with fellow founders over coffee and a pastry.
