What could a £5,000 voucher do for your business?
Innovation Vouchers allow you to access the skills and expertise of public sector knowledge providers, such as universities and colleges, in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.
Typical projects supported through Innovation Vouchers include:
- helping to create or improve products, services or processes
- access to specialist expertise on new materials
- tapping into research and scientific expertise
You can use vouchers to resolve a specific business issue, particularly if you don’t have the expertise, technology or facilities to deal with it.
To find out what vouchers can and can’t be used for, download the Innovation Vouchers FAQ document.
