UK Grants & Funding Opportunities
Secure financial backing for your groundbreaking projects.
Innovation Grants & Funding
For businesses across the UK, securing grant funding is a powerful way to accelerate innovation, de-risk projects, and bring groundbreaking ideas to market. Unlike loans or equity, grants don’t require repayment and don’t dilute ownership, making them an ideal source of capital for ambitious projects. The UK government and various public bodies offer a wide range of grant schemes to support innovation in key sectors, from clean energy to digital technology.
These grants are designed to champion British businesses and ensure the UK remains a global leader in science and technology. At Streets Innovation, we help you navigate this complex landscape, identifying and securing the right grant funding to fuel your growth.
UK Grant Funding Options
The UK’s grant ecosystem is robust and diverse, with funding available for innovative businesses at every stage of their lifecycle. Understanding the primary providers and their focus areas is the first step toward a successful application.
Innovate UK
Innovate UK is the UK’s national innovation agency and a primary source of funding. It offers a variety of schemes, including innovation loans, themed calls, and open competitions for projects across all sectors. Innovate UK’s core focus is on three key domains: Net Zero, Healthy Living & Agriculture, and Digital Technologies. They also have specific programs like the Energy Catalyst and Biomedical Catalyst to support targeted innovations in these crucial areas.
Government Departments & Agencies
In addition to Innovate UK, several government departments and agencies provide grants for specific sectors. The Department for Energy Security & Net Zero (DESNZ), for example, offers funding for low-carbon technologies and energy-efficiency projects.
For defence-related innovations, the Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA) offers grants for projects that address specific national security challenges. Other notable providers include the UK Space Agency and the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA), which offers grants for agricultural and environmental innovations.
