Nottingham City Council

Under the Universities for Nottingham Civic Agreement, The University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent University are working with Nottingham City Council to offer Talent Grants of up to £2,500.

These can be used to subsidise the recruitment of a university graduate or student for a minimum of eight weeks.

To qualify for one of the grants, businesses need to demonstrate that the graduate/ student project/ role would be used to implement or improve technology or processes, enable the business to enter new markets, improve or implement new products or services, or focus on research and development projects.
