If you have an innovative product, research project or intellectual property to take to market, then the DigitalCity Fellowship scheme is here to help you.

Fellowships are available to individuals and teams with an original project idea, who reside in the North East of England and who have graduated from University. The Fellowship offers a business support grant of £4000 which is to be used for living expenses whilst developing your idea over a six month period.

There is a pool of industry experts who are available to mentor you, and each project has a maximum of 4 days of mentoring support available as well as the opportunity to attend workshops, seminars and networking events.

DigitalCity Innovation are happy to discuss any business ideas with potential applicants, so if you have a digital based business idea (that isn’t retail) then get in touch. http://www.digitalcityfellowships.org/contact or call 01642 384334.
