Event Description {{detailsExpanded ? '- Show Less' : '+ Show More'}}

Win a share of £1,000 from Edinburgh Innovations, just for telling us about your idea. 

DEADLINE FOR IDEAS: 2nd December 2022 - 10:00 am

Are you based on Easter Bush Campus?

Do you have an idea for a business, social enterprise, charity, or freelancing proposition?

Tell us all about it and you could win a share of £1,000 to work on your idea.

We are looking for projects that will benefit from this level of support, and are at the 'idea' stage of development, although this doesn't necessarily disqualify businesses that are already formed and/or trading.

Ideas will be judged based on being 'at the idea stage', as well as overall desirability, viability, feasibility, and sustainability.

In order to accept the funds, you will need to agree that you will spend the money working on your business idea and that you will continue working with Edinburgh Innovations to further develop the idea. 

We also strongly encourage you to book a 1-2-1 with one of our business advisers to get support validating & developing your idea!

This competition is for current students and recent graduates (within the last two years) from the University of Edinburgh studying on Easter Bush Campus.

If you have won one of our "ideas competitions" before, you can not win again with the same idea, although you can win again with a different idea. Staff of the University of Edinburgh and/or Edinburgh Innovations are not eligible to apply to this competition. However, you would still be able to enter if you'd like to receive feedback from your judging panel.

Please keep to the word limits and do not provide external supporting evidence such as links.

DEADLINE FOR IDEAS: 2nd December 2022 - 10:00 am

The winners will be announced on 9 December – 5:00 pm-5:30 pm at an online event! You can register to attend this event here.
