Entrepreneurial Futures. Nurturing, embedding and accelerating an entrepreneurial culture in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly: an agile approach from higher and further education providers

Entrepreneurial Futures is a major new initiative that will benefit businesses and communities in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly through a £5.6 million investment from the UK Shared Prosperity Fund.

The project aims to inspire innovation and drive economic growth by connecting businesses with the region’s further and higher education institutions through research and development-led activities.

Focusing on research priorities in support of key sectors for the county’s economy, University of Plymouth is delivering activities around net zero, clean energy, agri-robotics, immersive technologies and coastal communities.

The initiative will see leading experts from the University working with businesses and other stakeholders across the region, providing them with access to advice, support, industry-leading facilities and academic collaboration.
