Grant funding

Lack of funding can restrict and inhibit growth as companies operate in increasingly competitive markets.

  • Dedicated funding specialists continually appraising available grants, loans and other funds to source the most appropriate funding available for businesses
  • Securing over £15 million in grant funding for UK businesses per year
  • Access to an extensive network of manufacturing, technology and creative companies, facilitating the introduction of relevant expertise where needed

There is an extensive range of grant funding available and the success criteria for winning it is often complex; engaging with specialists significantly increases the chance of a successful application.

Support available to:


  • Secure grant funding for both established businesses and innovative ‘early start’ companies
  • Search out the best grant for the business to ensure successful submission
  • Ensure businesses only apply for grants relevant to their objectives
  • Work alongside experts in R&D tax credits so clients secure grant funding in a tax-efficient manner

About Grant Funding

Specialists are also well versed in other funding schemes across the UK and EU, including:

  • UK-based specialist R&D grants (e.g. Innovate UK, SBRI, DASA etc.)
  • Horizon Europe (including European Innovation Council (EIC) schemes e.g. EIC Accelerator)
  • Eurostars
  • Capital grants

The aim of the £100 billion of capital investment is to kick-start growth and support jobs, including through capital grant and loan funding. Support is available for clients to access these schemes, which are usually managed regionally and help fund the purchase of capital items (machines, equipment, buildings, renovations, extensions etc.) and are directly linked to job creation.

Case studies

  • Prototype development grant for packaging of snacks

    A leading supplier of processing and packaging machines for the chocolate, confectionery, candy, biscuit and wafer industries successfully received funding for a prototype they wanted to develop further to improve the secondary packaging of snacks.

    The client had designed a novel collating packaging line. The benefits included: higher throughput, automatic change-over, bale formatting, increased efficiency and lower capital costs.

    Proposed project costs: £649,163
    Proposed project grant: £227,207

  • Customisable children’s footwear

    The client’s project will develop the knowledge to enable a children’s shoe to be mass customised at point of sale to fit ergonomically to an individual's foot characteristics based on two width fittings and up to six structural types.

    This would have the benefit of reducing the manufacturing cost, a better use of stock space and increasing the number of styles stocked by retailers.

    Proposed project costs: £145,259
