Faraday Battery Challenge Investment Readiness Programme – Deadline 04/02/2021

If you’re an SME in the electric vehicle battery sector and want to hone your pitch to investors, get a better understanding of the funding cycle and be more confident in delivering your story, you need to apply to KTN and the Faraday Battery Challenge Investment Readiness Programme.

The four-month Programme is tailor-made for the electric vehicle battery sector and will help up to 25 selected SMEs prepare to present and connect to potential investors. Following an application process, the Programme starts with a bootcamp. At the end of the bootcamp, you’ll have developed an investor pitch, finessed your proposition and you’ll have a defendable understanding of your finances and future plans.

The Programme culminates in a showcase event where the cohort will pitch to an audience of investors. A maximum of 25 companies can take part in the Programme and we are looking for SMEs working in the electric vehicle battery sector that are at a demonstrator stage of development.
