Ingenuity is a national programme looking to invest in the next generation of impact driven start-ups that will transform society and the environment.

Ingenuity is a partnership of the UK’s most innovative academic, commercial, public and third sector organisations. The goal is to discover future founders who will create impact-focused start-ups and lead the change towards a better and more inclusive future.

The programme is partnering with universities in the region to establish Ingenuity East Midlands and find great start-up ideas that could help drive the region’s recovery from the coronavirus pandemic.

The Future Founders programme is open to students, alumni and researchers wanting to set up their own impact-driven start-up.

The sign-up period is open now and closes on Thursday 12 November.
