About This Opportunity

The SWEF Enterprise Fund has been established to support young people aged 18-30 setting up and developing a business in Derby and Derbyshire. SWEF is a national funder, partnering with community foundations across the UK to ensure their funds can reach entrepreneurial young people needing assistance. The Fund has two distinct strands: Start Up Grants of up to £500 for young people launching a new business, and Business Grants of up to £2,000 to help businesses make a transformational change or take a significant step forward in their development. Both strands support equipment, materials, prototypes, website development, training, and other business costs that will make a significant impact. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis with decisions typically made within 4 weeks of submission.
