Matched Funding Opportunity

Matched Funding

Dear Sir/Madam,

Cash support to help develop your business!

The Manufacturing Advisory Service is currently offering up to £1,250 of matched funding towards Low Carbon and Advanced Manufacturing specialist services to support your business.

If you produce, assemble or manufacture a product then we may be able to help support your Low Carbon/Resource Efficiency or Advanced Manufacturing aspirations.

We are looking to assist programmes of work that can be shown to demonstrate added value to your business.  These programmes will include some form of third party external specialist support, bringing additional knowledge or skills (possibly temporarily) to your business, and it is this external support that MAS-SE has limited funding to help finance.

What types of services or projects can be funded?

All programmes must have an impact on your businesses Low Carbon/Resource Efficiency or Advanced Manufacturing objectives.

e.g.)

Advanced manufacturing

·         Process or product design & development

·         Scientific or technological skills development

·         Engineering research into advanced products and processes

Low carbon, Resource Efficiency and Environmental

·         Improved resource efficiency

·         Reduced environmental impact

·         Lean and Green programmes

·         Renewable energy

·         ISO 14001

NB.   The above list is not exhaustive; if you have a project in mind that you think may meet the criteria then please call, we may be able to help.

Funding is strictly limited so will be awarded on a first come served basis (subject to meeting criteria/funding availability).  Please contact me or the MAS-SE for further details.

Yours faithfully,

Stuart
