Decision as recorded
RESOLVED that a new £250k Research & Development Grant be introduced as part of the Shared Prosperity Fund – Business Anchor, to meet the needs of businesses and enable delivery of budget and outputs for the project.
The Cabinet Member considered a report which detailed a proposal to deliver a new Research Development Grant to be funded under the Shared Prosperity Fund Business Anchor. It was reported that a total of £250k would be available within the budget allocated under the business anchor project which was funded by the UK Government Shared Prosperity Fund. The Cabinet Member was advised that the business team for the Business Start Up and Growth Fund had identified a number of businesses who aimed to undertake activities related to very early stages of R&D, viability studies, prototyping, etc. however, support could not be provided under the Fund as the outcomes of job safeguarding and/or job creation would not be achieved within the funding period. Accordingly, given the essential nature of R&D in the development stages for those businesses, it was proposed that a grant be made available to meet the costs of specific R&D expenditure. The proposed eligibility criteria and costings were considered, together with the proposed outcomes, grant offer and alternative options, as set out in the report. RESOLVED that a new £250k Research & Development Grant be introduced as part of the Shared Prosperity Fund – Business Anchor, to meet the needs of businesses and enable delivery of budget and outputs for the project.
