The Surrey Economic Growth Fund round one has now closed – with hundreds of businesses and organisations expressing interest in funding for innovative ideas to drive growth in Surrey.
The Surrey Economic Growth Fund is overseen by Surrey County Council. It will see millions of pounds invested to drive growth, creating jobs, improving infrastructure, increasing productivity and upskilling our workforce.
This single pot is made up of a range of public and investment streams, such asย UK Shared Prosperity Fundingย from government.
The idea is to make it as simple and easy-as-possible for those looking to drive growth to apply for funding.
Round one launched in April 2025, closing at the end of May.
Up to ยฃ7 million is available for this financial year. In round one, we’ve received more than 300 expressions of interest totalling nearly ยฃ35 million of funding.
What happens next?
We want to say a big thank you to everyone who submitted an expression of interest inย round one of the Surrey Economic Growth Fund.
Due to the high volume and quality of initial submissions, not every application will be funded.
Those expressing interest will soon receive a unique online link in the coming days. This will have an invitation to submit further information to support their application. The deadline is the end of June.
Our Investment Panel will meet throughout July to review full applications and make funding decisions.
If you have questions about the next stage, get in touch with the team via the Business Surrey Contact Us form.
