Questions
Are there grants just for engineering and architecture businesses?
A few, but most grants are open to businesses in many sectors, as long as the project fits the funder's aims. This page shows grants aimed at engineering and architecture businesses and general grants they can apply for.
What can I use a business grant for?
It depends on the scheme. Common uses are new equipment, cutting energy use, training staff, taking on apprentices, digital tools, research and development, and exporting. Most grants won't pay for costs you've already spent before the grant is agreed.
How much can a small business get?
Local grants are often a few hundred to a few thousand pounds. Larger national and innovation grants can be much more but are more competitive and usually need match funding.
