Find out about alternative funding and finance for innovation

The Backs Cambridge

Alternative sources of funding and finance are ever changing. So, aside from grant funding, what is out there today that can help your innovation-driven business to grow and scale? 

The Innovate UK EDGE team, working with partners from Innovate UK and other providers, will set out the opportunities now available at a unique event on December 7 at St John’s Innovation Centre, Cambridge. You will find out more about a whole range of solutions for businesses, from co-venturing to crowdfunding and from innovation loans to Knowledge Transfer Partnerships. 

Elevator pitches will be followed by a panel answering your questions, then mini ‘surgeries’ with the experts and a chance for 1:1 discussions and networking. Find full details and register for your free place here.

This event on December 7 is part of the 2022 Cambridge, Milton Keynes and Oxford Arc Innovation Festival. Innovate UK, the nation’s innovation agency, working with the region’s Growth Hubs and local universities is hosting the first ever Arc Innovation Festival from 5-9 December 2022. The main event is planned for 8 December at Cranfield University: a unique chance to find out first-hand about Innovate UK’s funding schemes and additional support offered, as well as the intricacies of developing a winning grant application.
