Mobilise

The Mobilise programme is now open, offering UK-based SMEs, start-ups and spinouts support to develop and commercialise innovative zero-emission automotive and Connected & Automated Mobility (CAM) technologies, products and services.

Delivered over 12 months, the programme is designed to help early-stage technology businesses accelerate their route to market and become better positioned to attract future investment. Support is delivered through two phases covering Market Focus and Technology Validation.

Successful businesses can access grant funding of up to £180,000, alongside specialist mentoring, commercialisation support, networking opportunities and technology development. Participants will also have the opportunity to undertake a concept validation project to test and demonstrate their technology.

Mentoring is provided by independent business advisers and investors, with expertise covering commercial strategy, intellectual property, investment readiness, product development, cost engineering, supply chains, leadership and business storytelling.

The programme also provides workshops, peer-to-peer learning and opportunities to build valuable connections across the automotive sector.

Applications will be assessed competitively, with selection based on the quality of the innovation, its commercial potential and the capability of the team.
