SMART: SCOTLAND Grant
The SMART: SCOTLAND grant is one of Scottish Enterprise's research and development (R&D) grants that aims to support high-risk, highly ambitious projects. It provides support to conduct feasibility studies for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) based in Scotland, and supports activities that have a commercial endpoint. The grant helps businesses show their idea could work in the real world through technically focused feasibility studies. The business must own any intellectual property (IP) generated from the project. The program is looking for projects that fit with economic transformation priorities, including creating an internationally competitive energy transition industry in Scotland, driving capital investment to deliver a step-change in Scotland's productivity, and scaling the impact of Scotland's innovation strengths into high-growth industries of the future such as space, industrial biotech, life sciences (human health), fintech, and critical technologies like quantum, photonics, and semiconductors.
