The Department of Business and Trade (DBT) has published a call for evidence on access to finance for advanced manufacturing scale-ups.

DBT is keen to gather evidence that hasn't already been provided in recently published or active UK inquiries and reports.

This call for evidence will be particularly relevant to: 

  • advanced manufacturing firms with experience raising finance to scale up
  • the debt and equity investment community
  • organisations that represent innovators, entrepreneurs, and manufacturers
  • academics with an interest in the manufacturing of new technologies including those stemming from university spinout

Responses will be added to evidence gathered in response to questions on mobilising capital in the green paper on the government’s new modern industrial strategy ‘Invest 2035’, and form part of the government’s wider evidence base to develop the strategy and drive growth.

If you have evidence that can be submitted, please complete this form: Access to Finance in Advanced Manufacturing | Call for Evidence

It will be open for five weeks until 26 November 2024.
