20. • Builds on the UK’s world-class research base and delivers the science that
business needs to transform existing industries and create new ones
• Accelerates commercial exploitation of the most exciting technologies
the UK has to offer the world to ensure that scientific investment truly
delivers economic impact, jobs and growth right across the country
• Programmes delivered by the fund will be industry-led and powered by
multi-disciplinary research and business-academic collaboration
• Delivered by Innovate UK and Research Councils UK, and eventually
UK Research and Innovation, the single voice for the UK’s research and
innovation landscape

Challenge Fund
21. First Wave of Challenges (1 of 2)
£181M to develop first-of-a-kind technologies for the
manufacture of medicines to accelerate patient access
to new drugs and treatments
£246m to develop world leading batteries, designed
and manufactured in the UK, to fully exploit the
industrial opportunity of vehicle electrification
£93m to develop AI and Robotic systems that can be
deployed in extreme environments such as occur in off-
shore energy, nuclear energy, space and deep mining
22. The second wave of the Challenge Fund
Data to early diagnosis &
precision medicine
Healthy ageing
Next generation services
Audience of the future Quantum technology
Transforming
construction
Transforming food
production
Energy revolution
25. • A compelling, focused challenge articulated in a way that anyone will
understand and see the benefit of solving
• Not ‘business as usual’ or already funded through other means
• Business-led, improving productivity and economic benefit across the UK
• Not just a bid for more money – clear milestones to success by 2021/2022
• Think: “Not what ISCF can do for you, but what you can do to help ISCF.”

Editor's Notes
Projects from the selected wave 3 challenges should start from April 2019 and last up to 3 years.
open expression of interest (EoI) is to identify the main challenges faced by industry and society in the UK. We want to understand the level of demand for innovation funding in order to address them.
Expressions of interest are welcome from industry-led consortia
This is not a competition for funding, but an expression of interest to help identify challenges to be supported in future waves of the ISCF.
Your application must focus on one of the government’s 4 ‘grand challenges’, which are:
putting the UK at the forefront of the artificial intelligence and big data revolution
maximising advantages to UK industry from the global shift to clean growth
becoming a world leader in shaping the future of mobility
harnessing the power of innovation to meet the needs of an ageing society
Plus Scottish Enterprise
The scheme is designed to support an SME along the journey from an initial idea through to a product tested in humans and, we hope, to take the company to a stage where private investors are willing to come in and fund the subsequent steps in the journey.
In the last round of Biomedical Catalyst we introduced the Primer Award, so there are now 4 strands to the BMC scheme. The first two strands are assessed on the written application only. For the Early Stage and Late Stage, success at the written application stage grants the applicant an opportunity for interview by the Major Awards Committee, where presenters will receive a new score which will determine whether or not they receive funding.
