Innovate UK Application templates & Guidance
Thinking of applying for a SMART Grant but don’t know where to start?
I can help!
Getting Started Package
What's included?
- We will have a telephone or video call where I will get an understanding of your project and you can quiz me on any aspect of your grant application.
- I will prepare you a bespoke template which gives specific guidance on how to answer each of the Innovate UK questions. This will be tailored to your project (taking into account your aims, project stage, market and team set up). The guidance will be in the form of a document that provides pointers on what you should cover for each question and guidance on how to complete the application to maximise your chances of success.
- I will provide you with personalised templates and guidance on how to complete the appendices required for the Innovate UK application including tips on what you should include.
- I will also provide you with a template to help you calculate your costs that is designed to help you identify key figures to use elsewhere in your application. This will also be adapted to fit your project type.
Then it is over to you to complete the application by filling in all your project specific information.
What next?
You have a few options available:
- You can continue to complete and submit the application yourself.
- You can complete the application and then use my Application Review Package: this is where I check over a completed application and give specific feedback on any areas where improvements can be made.
- You can fill in all your project information in draft format (e.g notes or bullet points) and then use my grant application writing service: this is where I take your project information and write it up into a clear and convincing application. (This service is subject to availability – early booking recommended)
To check availability and find out more information please fill out my contact form.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
Templates and guidance produced will be specific to your project (based on the information you provide on our initial call). Documents are for the sole use of the customer and are not transferable to other parties or other projects.
It is your responsibility to ensure that your project is eligible and suitable for the grant competition you are applying for. Note that Innovate UK competitions (and especially the SMART Grant) are highly competitive and only the very highest scoring applications will receive funding.
It is your responsiblity to submit the application and to ensure that all the information you submit is accurate and complete.
* Cost shown includes a discount for upfront payment. Cost shown is for the basic SMART Grant ‘getting started’ package: this is suitable for most single entity applications. Additional costs may apply where there are a number of collaborating partners, where the project is particularly complex, or for other Innovate UK competitions. Contact me for a specific quote.
