It looks like SIE (alongside Launch.ed) are providing funding for students and recent graduates that are looking to patent their technology/product.
According to the latest Launch.ed newsletter, recent MSc graduate, Alex Cole, has scooped a SIE patent fund which gave him 50% to process his gesture computing technology.
If you’re interested – contact Rebecca Difford, Hilary Singer or Antonio Fierro at Launch.ed.
Alex Cole, a Design and Digital Media postgraduate alumni, has been awarded a 50% grant from the Scottish Institute for Enterprise to fund an initial patent filing for his gesture computing technology. Alex was also recently a finalist in the SIE New Ventures Competition and started to develop his venture through the Prospect Enterprise Fellowship Programme (PEF).
There are still funds available through SIE to fund more students with novel inventions who want to start a business. Get in touch with LAUNCH.ed to find out how to apply.
