The UK Entrepreneurial Skills study, which will focus on 16 – 25-year-olds, has been funded by Innovate UK and developed by UK Innovation District Group (UK IDG) and Connected Places Catapult. The study is in response to a concerning trend of a declining number of UK start-ups.
Eight projects awarded £150,000 each to better connect rural communities. Winning projects include digital tools that support patients and staff to travel to NHS hospitals. Funding will enhance travel for rural residents, while delivering greener transport technologies.
The Design to Deliver consortium has chosen consultancies that will support SMEs as they develop solutions that unlock human behaviours to regenerate nature.
32 pioneering projects granted a share of £1.4 million to drive innovation and revolutionise the UK transport sector. Ideas will boost economic growth by creating jobs – sparking further innovation and cementing the UK’s position as a global leader in green transport.
Technologies designed for ports, vessels and offshore facilities to improve their safety, security and performance have been chosen to receive financial and business support.
