About us

We channel innovation into the United Kingdom.

What we do

Innovate Britain is a non-profit organisation and part of the InvestUK Group of companies.

​

We channel innovation into the UK economy by supporting the world's finest entrepreneurs to build innovative, viable and scalable businesses in the United Kingdom.

​

We focus primarily on industry sectors vital to the UK economy, including Education, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Consumer and Infrastructure, but occasionally support exceptional business propositions in other sectors.

Who we are

We're an organisation of 10 staff with experience in investment, entrepreneurship and immigration.

​

Since 2012 we have supported over 180 UK entrepreneurs through investment or acceleration and facilitated £61m of investment into innovative companies across all regions of the UK.

​

Our activities are overseen by an independent Advisory Council of 11 leading UK entrepreneurs, investors and government policy experts. They are responsible for ensuring that we act fairly and transparently, alongside helping to assess applications and support businesses related to their individual areas of expertise.
