UKSPF: Business growth & innovation support

University of Bedfordshire, Gov UK, Levelling up  logos

The UKSPF is a central pillar of the UK government’s Levelling Up agenda and provides £2.6 billion of funding for local investment by March 2025.

Identifying and solving challenges faced by your business is key to its growth - whether your goals involve venturing into new markets, embarking on new product development, cost reduction, skilled employee recruitment, or gaining insights into the impact of environmental issues.

This UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) programme, delivered by the University of Bedfordshire in partnership with the Central Bedfordshire and West Northamptonshire Councils, will enable you to strategically move your business forward while effectively managing the day-to-day issues.

The Fund aims to improve pride in place and increase life chances across the UK investing in communities and place, supporting local business, and people and skills. For more information, visit UKSPF prospectus
