Rhaglen Sbarduno Datgarboneiddio Trafnidiaeth gydag Awdurdodau Lleol
Y dyddiad cau ar gyfer derbyn ceisiadau yw hanner nos ar 15 Medi 2024
Dyma’r rhaglen Sbarduno Datgarboneiddio Trafnidiaeth gydag Awdurdodau Lleol, i gefnogi busnesau bach a chanolig ac ardaloedd lleol i ddiwallu’r cyfleoedd a’r heriau a ddaw yn sgil ymrwymiadau sero net sy’n seiliedig ar leoedd. Connected Places Catapult sy’n gyfrifol am y rhaglen a hynny rhwng mis Medi 2024 a mis Mawrth 2025, ac mae’n cael ei rhedeg ar y cyd â’r Awdurdodau Lleol a’r Corff Trafnidiaeth Is-genedlaethol canlynol:
- Cynghorau Adur a Worthing
- Cyngor Sir Caerdydd
- England’s Economic Heartland
Mae’r pedwar partner wedi datblygu her benodol sy’n seiliedig ar leoedd. Gyda chefnogaeth Connected Places Catapult, bydd hyd at 2 fusnes bach a chanolig yn cael eu dewis i weithio ar y cyd â phob partner, a chael dealltwriaeth feirniadol a fydd yn eu galluogi i fireinio eu hatebion i fynd i’r afael â’r heriau a gynigiwyd sy’n seiliedig ar leoedd. Bydd busnesau bach a chanolig yn cael eu dewis ar sail pa mor gryf yw eu hatebion i’r heriau dan sylw, ac nid o reidrwydd pa mor agos yn ddaearyddol ydyn nhw at y partner.
Ar ôl asesu anghenion masnachol unigol y busnesau bach a chanolig, bydd Connected Places Catapult yn llunio rhaglen bwrpasol o gymorth masnachol sy’n canolbwyntio ar integreiddio yn y sector cyhoeddus. Gall hyn gynnwys y canlynol:
- dadansoddi a dilysu’r farchnad
- mireinio/datblygu achosion o ddefnydd penodol
- cymorth i greu a mireinio modelau busnes
- cyfathrebiadau a strategaethau masnachol wedi’u haddasu ar gyfer caffael cyhoeddus
- datblygu strategaethau ‘Mynd i’r Farchnad’
- cyflwyniadau i ddarpar gwsmeriaid a/neu fuddsoddwyr awdurdodau trafnidiaeth ac awdurdodau lleol.
Mae heriau’r rhaglen sbarduno a’r meini prawf cymhwysedd i’w gweld isod.
Gweminar Cymorth i Wneud Cais
Bydd Connected Places Catapult yn cynnal Gweminar Cymorth i Wneud Cais ar 21 Awst, rhwng 2 a 3pm. Bydd y digwyddiad hwn yn rhoi cyfle i ymgeiswyr gael rhagor o wybodaeth am yr hyn mae’r rhaglen yn ei gynnig, yr heriau, y broses ymgeisio, y meini prawf sgorio, a’r broses asesu. Hefyd, bydd sesiwn fyw o holi ac ateb ar gyfer darpar ymgeiswyr i ofyn unrhyw gwestiynau pellach neu i wirio a ydyn nhw’n gymwys.

A leading Initiative in the Department for transport’s Freight Innovation Fund programme, brought to you by Connected Places Catapult
The freight Innovation cluster (FIC) Is a robust network of members operating in the freight Industry, which regularly engage and work collaboratively towards joint opportunities.
With more than 180 organisations, encompassing Industry, academia, local authorities and larger players, the freight Innovation cluster is far from being only a community.

An Innovation cluster often refers to a group of organisations geographically located in the same area, sharing the same Industry focus, and interacting in a collaborative, yet competitive, way.
The Freight Innovation cluster revolutionises the way clusters operate. Its strategic focus on the governments freight strategy and commercialisation, rather than being a limitation, represents an opportunity and enables it to act as a catalyst, convening the freight sector and reducing the barriers to innovation. FIC’s goal is to create a solid ecosystem of places and solutions, that, powered by togetherness and collaborative Innovation, can become the backbone of the UK freight Industry.
