Bolton Ignition Fund

Looking for an opportunity to ignite your business idea?

Do you have an idea and need funding to start your business journey?

The Bolton Ignition Fund is a competition that gives entrepreneurial students and graduates of less than two years the chance to win the funding.

The University of Bolton is proud to support our student’s ambitions; that’s why the fund offers more than just a winning prize:

  • Winning prize of £5,000
  • 3x Runners-up prizes of up to £3,000
  • 5x Merit awards of up to £1,500 each

Wondering how you can put yourself in contention for these awards? Students or graduates wishing to take part will need to send in a business canvas model to support their application.**

The application closing date is the 27 March 2023 so register your interest now to avoid missing out!
