Please note that all our funding calls advertised on this page are open. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 outbreak, we will be sympathetic to reasonable changes in the start dates of projects.
HVB will fund three Enterprise Fellowships to provide support for an individual to enable progress of a concept towards commercialisation. Enterprise Fellows will be supported by a mentor funded by HVB.
Funding of £70,000 will be awarded per fellowship and duration will be up to one year.
