Programmes and funding

To support the IBIC's goals and our partners in businesses and science, research, innovation and teaching institutions, we have a series of funding opportunities designed to drive regional growth and create a more productive and R&D intensive economy for the north-west.

These schemes will support translating research into real-world applications, upskilling and re-skilling the workforce, and building relationships between business, academia and local government. There are several schemes available to our partners, the details for each are listed on our knowledge exchange and commercialisation pages. Further details can be found in the IBIC handbook, which should be read before applying to any of our schemes, and an example set of terms and conditions for the schemes can be accessed here.
