NIHR Invention for Innovation Programme’s i4i Connect funding opportunity
Deadline for applications: 18th March 2025
The NIHR Invention for Innovation (i4i) Programme is delighted to launch its latest funding opportunity for i4i Connect to support translational research and development of medical devices, in vitro diagnostics and high-impact patient-focused digital health technologies for ultimate use in the NHS or social care systems. The research proposals may address any disease or health area, provided there is a clear unmet clinical need.
Offering up to £150,000 over a maximum of 12 month period, i4i Connect helps SMEs get to the point where they can apply for further funding, in particular for a full i4i Product Development Award (PDA), or to support projects at any stage of the translational research and development pathway to further de-risk them for follow on investment.
Before you apply, please make sure to visit the i4i Connect February 2025 funding opportunity page and read the accompanying domestic outline application guidance.
Deadline: 1pm, 18 March 2025
