Funding & Signposting
Space Humber provides expert guidance to help you identify and secure the funding opportunities that can accelerate your space business or innovation. While we don't provide direct funding, our team offers invaluable support in navigating the complex funding landscape, connecting you to relevant opportunities and supporting your applications.
We maintain comprehensive knowledge of the UK and European space sector funding ecosystem, including grants, investment programmes, competitions and R&D support initiatives. Our team continuously monitors announcements from key funding bodies including UK Space Agency, Innovate UK, European Space Agency, Satellite Applications Catapult and private sector investors with space interests. We assess opportunities against your specific business profile, technology readiness level and growth objectives to identify the most suitable funding routes with the highest probability of success.
Securing competitive funding requires more than just completing forms—it demands a strategic approach that positions your proposition effectively. We help you develop compelling narratives that align your innovation with funder priorities and demonstrate clear commercial potential. Our team works with you to articulate your unique value proposition, technology differentiation and market opportunity in ways that resonate with specific funding bodies. We also advise on optimal timing, consortium building when appropriate, and aligning applications with wider sector strategies.
