Grant Ready
The 6-Week Programme for Innovators who want to complete a fundable Innovate UK application – step by step.
Get early access and priority updates when the programme opens.
Want a submission ready Innovate UK application (not just half-drafted notes)?
If you’re an SME, spin-out, or consortium lead with a genuine innovation, this programme helps you turn your idea into a strong, compliant application – with the structure, expert guidance and accountability you need.
At least 1 in 5 Innovate UK applications fail, and many more fall short because they lack persuasive positioning, robust evidence or clear alignment with assessor criteria.
Over 6 focused weeks, you’ll develop a strategically framed, evidence-backed submission designed to improve your chances by up to 4× compared to going it alone.
Over the 6 weeks, you’ll build a submission ready Innovate UK application tailored to your project, partners and chosen competition.
Foundations for success
We’ll confirm competition fit and eligibility, and piece together your project structure, value proposition and scope – giving you a solid base for your Innovate UK application.
Confidence with a Grant Coach
You’ll make quick progress drafting key sections, get clarity on what assessors are really looking for, and build confidence as your bid takes shape.
Stronger submission with expert review
We’ll refine your budget, risks, impact and compliance – so you finish with a submission-ready application and no last-minute surprises.
Grant Ready
Grant Ready is a powerful blend of learning, coaching and implementation – with an experienced grant writer by your side.

Module 5
Value
We’ll produce a balanced, detailed risk register, evidence added value, and create a compliant budget with clear costs and strong value-for-money justification.
Module 6
Delivery
We’ll refine every section, optimise to word counts, prepare letters of support, and guide your final submission strategy to ensure compliance and confidence.
