Raising finance

The UK Government has a range of national funding schemes to support companies locating to this country, and to support enterprise development.

For example, new types of technology-focused venture capital funds have been created to enable high-potential, small companies to develop and grow.

Regions like North East England have grants and other forms of financial assistance available to support investment by overseas companies. The funding can be tailored to specific needs such as research and development.

One NorthEast and its partners provide advice on the most appropriate funding. The Agency can bring together funding partners to provide packages, to match individual business needs.
