Innovation Lincolnshire
Innovation Lincolnshire is a flagship programme that delivers innovation support directly to the Lincolnshire business community. A team of dedicated business and innovation experts provides specialist help to eligible businesses via a combination of specialist mentoring and grant aid to improve their performance, efficiency, profitability and overall competitiveness.
Innovation Lincolnshire is also providing a purpose built Innovation Centre in Lincoln - Think Tank - that will provide 3,400 sq m of mixed use offices and workspaces.
The project has been designed to stimulate a culture of business innovation in Lincolnshire by:
Project aims:
- creating high value added employment in Lincolnshire
- maximising collaboration with the University of Lincoln
- capitalising on opportunities for university spin out companies
- directly supporting new and existing SMEs with growth potential across Lincolnshire
"The Think Tank is truly representative of the firms we hope it will house - it is innovative in design, it is a state of the art facility and it will hopefully put Lincoln not only on the business innovation map, but as a leader for innovation projects in the region."
