What We Offer
We offer two tiers of specialist support, designed around how much involvement you need. From fully embedded project management to behind-the-scenes claims handling, both services are built on years of direct Innovate UK experience. We make sure nothing falls through the cracks.
Whatever level of support suits your business, you get the same specialist knowledge, the same understanding of what Innovate UK expects, and the same commitment to keeping your project on track and your funding claims approved.
