Where would you
like to start?
- Build Strategic Resilience Growth resting on own funds alone is vulnerable. Non-repayable public funding secures stable growth, reduces supply chain dependency and cushions geopolitical and regulatory risk.
- Accelerate R&D and Innovation Development ties up capital long before it returns any. Research funding turns R&D work or software development from a cost block into plannable cash inflow, and protects your strategic lead.
- Optimise Your Funding Mix Knowing only one programme leaves money on the table. A planned funding mix spreads instruments across your project portfolio and turns funding into a line in the financial plan rather than a one-off.
- Stay Audit-Ready and Compliant Awarded does not mean kept. Gathering evidence only at the end of a project invites clawback. We build the evidence logic into the application and carry it through the funded period.

How we work
A four-phase process, from the first scan to disbursement, carried by AI-supported delivery and more than 25 years of application experience.
PHASE 1
Funding Scan
We identify the right funding programmes based on your goals, your sector and the scope of your project.
PHASE 2
Strategy & Eligibility
We build a tailored funding roadmap and check eligibility before resources are committed.
PHASE 3
Application & Submission
We prepare technically strong applications and submit them for the best possible chance of approval.
PHASE 4
Compliance & Disbursement
You stay audit-ready throughout delivery, with structured reporting and risk management.
Sectors we understand. Markets we cover.
- Digital & IT Software development qualifies more often than teams expect. What decides it is technical uncertainty, not the subject.
- Advanced Manufacturing & Engineering Automation, robotics and new production methods meet investment and development funding at the same time.
- Chemicals & Materials Decarbonisation, circular processes and new materials. The step from lab to plant is the critical point.
- Public Sector, Education & Research Rarely technical uncertainty, almost always co-financing, procurement and evidence. That shifts the emphasis.
- Energy, Environment & Sustainability Generation, storage, hydrogen and efficiency. The densest and fastest-changing funding landscape of the eight.
- Life Sciences & Health Long development cycles without revenue. The development phase decides the instrument more than anywhere else.
- Food, Agriculture & Bioeconomy Agricultural policy, innovation funding and environmental schemes interlock. The classification decides the instrument.
- Mobility & Logistics Drivetrains, charging infrastructure and connected logistics. Development and procurement follow separate funding routes.
I only need to supply the necessary documents and Ignite Group takes care of the rest. It gives us the freedom to focus on developing our technology and selling our products.
Without the knowledge of ‘grant-speak’ and the speed of action, we would never have pulled this off.
Ignite Group critically reviewed our draft budget and clarified which costs were eligible. We followed that advice and secured a generous grant. It shows that, even after years of partnership, Ignite Group keeps adding value.
