The Scottish funding Council (SFC) has confirmed continued funding for Converge, the national organisation supporting university entrepreneurs.
The announcement came as Converge celebrated its 2025 award winners who shared a total prize pot in excess of £400,000.
Alongside the SFC funding announcement, Converge also revealed a new strategic partnership with Scottish Enterprise to create smoother pathways for university entrepreneurs to access business support.
Francesca Osowska, Chief Executive of the Scottish Funding Council, said:
“We’re proud to have been able to support Converge’s impact on Scottish innovation and entrepreneurship for the past 14 years.
“Converge continues to be an integral part of our knowledge exchange and innovation infrastructure and plays an increasingly important role as a catalyst for the thriving and sustainable businesses we need for the future economy.
