About

Accessing start-up funding and investment is the number one barrier for female entrepreneurs. Despite various funding mechanisms on offer from agencies such Innovate UK, only 1 in 7 Innovate UK applicants are women. Grant funding can be a game changer helping you accelerate research and development, define your business plan and go to market strategy, and focus crucial preparation for later pitching to making the case for private investment.

In this workshop, we will explore all things grant funding including available funding opportunities, what funding support can be used for, plus our hints and tips on preparing successful applications. There will be a Q&A session where we answer everything you need to know about applying for grant funding whether you are a complete novice or have previous experience in applying for grant funding.

Who should attend

At PNO we specialise in grant funding typically submitting >100 applications each year and have realised that the majority of our applications are led by men.* To help address this imbalance, we are offering a free workshop aimed at female entrepreneurs only.
