Ingenuity Impact

Ingenuity Impact is a national innovation and entrepreneurship programme that directly addresses the UK’s major social, health and environmental challenges through the creation of impactful start-ups. The programme champions 3 key challenge themes: building stronger communities, improving health and wellbeing and tackling climate change. We provide start-up skills training experiences, access to mentoring and networking, learning and development opportunities, plus routes to funding for early-stage business ideas that have the potential to make meaningful change to people’s lives, society and the environment. The annual competition creates an opportunity for participants to pitch, where the most impactful ideas are awarded top prizes and receive a share of significant grant funding. Ingenuity Impact is powered by the University of Nottingham, and supported by a range of university partners and both corporate and community partner organisations.
