UK Grant FAQs

What industries can apply for UK innovation grants?

As long as the project is commercially viable and meets the respective grant criteria, there’s no restriction on which industries can apply for UK innovation grants. From clean energy, biomedical engineering, medica devices, drug discovery, and digital technology to mechanical engineering and nanotechnology, funding can be awarded to business across varying sectors and specialisms.

Do you have to repay UK innovation grants?

No, unlike loans or equity, grants don’t require repayment or dilute ownership, making them an ideal source of capital for ambitious projects.

Can you apply for more than one UK innovation grant?

Yes, you can apply for more than one UK innovation grant, but this comes with strict rules and regulations. Some of which are as follows:

  • You cannot submit or receive funding for the same project - each project must be distinctly unique.
  • Your business can only be the lead applicant on one grant application at a time.
  • To be successful, you must also prove you have the resources to deliver on multiple projects at the same time.
