Wales business grants
In Wales, Business Wales is the main gateway to Welsh Government business support, and the Development Bank of Wales provides funding to Welsh companies — both distinct from schemes in the rest of the UK. UK-wide grants apply too. Subvention shows the live grants a Welsh business is eligible for, each traceable to source.
Grants change frequently — always confirm eligibility, amounts and deadlines with the funder via the linked source. Subvention does not guarantee funding.
Funding bodies in Wales
Wales businesses are supported by a mix of regional and national bodies. The organisations below are the main routes to publicly-backed funding and support in Wales — each with its own eligibility rules, so always confirm details on their own page:
- • Business Wales — the Welsh Government's business support service, including startup and growth grants.
- • Development Bank of Wales — loans and equity for Welsh businesses at every stage.
- • Welsh Government programmes — sector and regeneration funding specific to Wales.
UK-wide grants also open to Wales businesses
On top of Wales-specific support, every UK-wide scheme is open to businesses here — including GOV.UK Find a Grant, Innovate UK, UKRI, the British Business Bank's programmes and National Lottery funds. Subvention searches all of these at once and matches them to your company using your Companies House profile, so you see the Wales and national grants you're eligible for in a single ranked list, each linked to its source.
