Accessing sources of funding, finance and support can bring significant benefits to your organisation, beyond just a cash or efficiency injection. The widening of your network, the development and commercialisation of intellectual property and entry into new markets may all result from participation in such schemes.
Know who
Looking for a research partner, or for a company in need of or with the latest technology? The Enterprise Europe Network database holds over 13,000 technology profiles from companies, universities and research institutions across Europe. It is free to access and for SMEs and universities it is free to post your own profile on the database.
The network is constantly growing with new profiles added weekly and is accessed not just by those within the EU but organisations from around the world looking for the right technology or technology skill.
Know how
A large percentage of funding and finance applications fail because the documents submitted do not answer the brief or contain the requested information. Throughout the SMMT List of Funding, Finance and Support Sources you’ll find relevant links to guidance documents. We offer our members a spell and ‘sense check’ of any proposal documents to check that you have included the required information, although we cannot guarantee that this will improve your bids success.
For further information about our proposal checking service or funding queries contact our Technology and Innovation Officer, Luke Hampton.
