Business Grants are not there to provide any business automatic entitlement them, they are effectively created and awarded to help those local West Midlands based businesses who are able to demonstrate that such business grants will provide long term benefits either direct to the business in question as well as possibly throughout the local supply chain, as well as not forgetting assisting the local economy via the creation of jobs, improvement within the eco arena and so on.
There are those businesses who think that there are literally thousands of business grants available and they are right especially right across the UK, but they are all created to meet a specified criteria of application.
A business grant is a brilliant way to get a project of the ground, to fully research and develop your product.
Are R&D Grants one of the Business Grants available?
Research and Development Grants often referred to as R&D Grants are possibly one of the best source of funding for manufacturing type companies as generally the funds don’t have to be repaid and are interest free.
Business Grants are often called FREE money, however as intermated above they usually have a number of conditions attached, so entitlement to them is not automatic.
Business Grants are usually for a specific purpose, can be geographically bound, and are aimed at a specific size and types of organisations. They come from a variety of sources like, central government, regional and local government, the European Commission and various other national and local bodies. Some areas of the UK are favoured above other, for example if is creating a business in an economically disadvantaged area with high unemployment.
