SBRI Competition – Healthy Ageing Social Ventures: KTN

SBRI Competition – Healthy Ageing Social Ventures

Join us to learn more about the upcoming SBRI Healthy Ageing Social Ventures Competition, from UKRI and the Healthy Ageing Challenge, at KTN’s pre-engagement webinar on 14th July.

UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) is pleased to announce the launch of the upcoming SBRI Healthy Ageing Social Ventures Competition, from UKRI and our Healthy Ageing Challenge.

The healthy ageing market we are investing in is very diverse. It ranges from helping people remain physically active through to managing the impacts of ageing, such as hearing loss and cognitive impairment. On the way, innovations will help people live independently in their own homes for longer and enable them to remain engaged with their communities. These solutions will address the Healthy Ageing’s ‘seven themes of ageing’ which are described here.

Launching on 19 July, the competition aims to help you achieve your mission by awarding a total of £4m. With grants for eligible project costs being allocated across two funding streams:

  • Stream 1: £25 – 50k

  • Stream 2: £51 – 150k

To find out more about how the SBRI for Social Ventures will work and how businesses can apply and what UKRI are seeking please register here for this online briefing event on 14 July, 11am to 12 noon.
