Our £1,000 (incl. VAT) Business Catalyst (Small) Grants are designed to help you take your business to the next stage - whether that’s through essential new equipment, marketing tools, or specialist skills and knowledge. There will be the opportunity to ask questions and join in the conversation.

In these one-to-one sessions, Julia will share top tips, so that you can apply with confidence over the next few months. You will also receive insights into the projects of past recipients to get you inspired.

During the session, you will have time to ask your questions, such as:

  • What is a Business Catalyst (Small) Grant? What projects will be considered?
  • What is expected in return for funding?
  • What is the process of applying?
  • What are the time scales for pursuing a successfully funded project?
  • What help will be provided throughout the process?

These grants have been funded through modern philanthropic giving, via the Goldsmiths' Foundation, from members of the Goldsmiths’ Company.
