  Ongoing initiative

  Research Councils Follow-on Fund | More information

  Funded by BBSRC and delivered by the Royal Society of Edinburgh, Enterprise Fellowships are designed to encourage the development of a new business, building on previously funded BBSRC research, around a technological idea developed by the Fellow (either individually or with others) and within which the Fellow would be expected to play a leading (though not necessarily the leading) role. This award is of particular relevance to individuals and ideas who previously received BBSRC Follow-on Funding (although not exclusively).

  They provide:

  A year’s salary to provide time to develop a full business plan and seek investment
  Access to mentors, business experts and professional advisors
  Business training to help develop the required skills
  Eligibility
  Academic and research staff and postgraduates with relevant experience are eligible to apply if employed by a:

  UK Higher Education Institution (HEI), or
  Institutes of BBSRC
