Enterprise Fund 2023

Posted on: 2 November 2023 by Richard Finch in Enterprise

The University of Liverpool Enterprise Fund offers the chance to apply for awards varying from £500-£5,000 to support the development of an existing enterprise or early-stage business idea.

You do not need to have a start-up already running, however, you will need to supply a business plan with as much detail as possible to show how the funding will help your business idea develop.

Examples of activities the fund can support include:

• Recruitment of staff
• Technical equipment, such as laptops, headphones, specialist equipment.
• Training/ short courses directly related to business
• Marketing activities
• Professional body membership
• Software packages
• Accountancy services (tax/VAT)
• Support contracted companies to undertake work i.e software development
• Business development activity

The fund will accept submissions until 13 March but early applications are encouraged.

The fund will accept submissions online through Handshake. Make sure that you join The Green Room to keep up to date on all the latest enterprise related news, events, and competitions.
