I’m already running my own business. Am I able to apply for a Fellowship?

The Fellowship scheme has been set up to help entrepreneurs produce work that leads to the creation of new businesses and jobs. If you already run a company, you are still able to apply for a fellowship providing this leads to the creation of jobs; however, you might not receive funding as a fellow yourself. There are other support mechanisms for existing companies – namely through DigitalCity Business, the Teesside University, Business Enterprise North East and Chamber of Commerce etc.
