As part of the Liverpool City Region’s vision to increase the impact of the health and life science and deep tech sectors, Liverpool City Region Combined Authority has provided LYVA Labs with £7m for pre-seed investment to accelerate growth, create jobs, and address the funding gap for early stage start-ups in the region.
Innovative businesses and start-ups across the region can apply for investment of £10,000 to £250,000 for idea development and commercialisation.
As managers of the fund, we aim to create an ecosystem of high-growth companies. Any returns on investments made go back into this Challenge Fund to allow continued innovation for businesses within the region.
