Our funding support service helps innovators to successfully identify and secure grant funding to accelerate the development and adoption of innovative solutions for better health and wellbeing. 

We offer support that's tailored to you, helping to drive better health and care outcomes for the people of Wales.

  • Funding Directory  - A snapshot of the latest funding opportunities in health innovation.
  • Signposting to opportunities - Have a great idea but unsure where to start? We can guide you to the most relevant funding calls and ensure you're aligned with eligibility criteria and deadlines.
  • Funding intelligence - We have access to a global database of funding calls, programs, and innovation initiatives.
  • Bid review - Already have a draft funding application? Our team can edit, review, and proofread your application to ensure it's clear, compelling, and ready for submission.
  • Consortium Building - Do you need expert partners to support your innovation project? We can help you form strategic partnerships by connecting you with collaborators from academia, industry, and the NHS.

Who qualifies for our help?

We work with organisations developing health and social care innovations that will benefit patients, improve NHS Wales, and boost the Welsh economy.

Our tailored support is available to academics, industry partners, clinicians, local authorities, and charities.

We're looking to support funding applications with the following criteria: 

  • Your innovation must focus on benefiting health and social care, with demonstrable impact for Wales.
  • While applications from academic institution or health boards do not always need to be collaborative, involving multiple organisations is encouraged and can enhance your application.
  • If you are a business seeking our support, your application must be in collaboration with another organisation, such as an academic institution or a health board.
  • If you require financial support other than grant funding, we can direct you to Business Wales and/or Development Bank of Wales.
