At UMi, businesses are always telling us that the key challenges when it comes to grant funding are knowing where to find opportunities and understanding how the whole application process works. In this webinar, we will provide you with an overview of the grant application life-cycle so that you leave with a clear understanding of what is required when applying for a grant.
This session is for established businesses that have a growth opportunity they’ve spotted but are struggling to access funds through regular financial channels.
