Since our formation in 2007, we’ve:

  • developed, delivered and retired different ways of supporting UK businesses to innovate
  • delivered innovation support on behalf of other government departments and large innovation infrastructure assets like Catapult Centres.

These changes to how we fund innovation can make analysis challenging.
