You fund 50% yourself.

Who can apply

Caps vary slightly between LEOs - confirm with your own county office. Enterprise must employ no more than 10 people including the owner, be established, registered and operating in that LEO's county, and be a manufacturing, internationally traded services, or domestically traded business with international growth potential. LEOs cannot support retail, wholesale, personal services, professional services, construction, accommodation or agriculture. There are 31 Local Enterprise Offices, one in each local authority area - apply to the LEO for the county where you are based.
