About this contract

GMCA is seeking to commission a Development Offer for people and organisations receiving funding for innovation through a project to develop Greater Manchester's Foundational Economy. The "foundational economy" supplies essential goods and services, ensuring that Greater Manchester can function effectively. It includes key workers, essential supply chains and infrastructure, culturally important goods and services (like hairdressing and beauty) and it underpins places, other parts of the economy, and well-being. It's the "everyday economy", or the "essential economy" - the businesses we all rely on for our daily needs As part of a focus on supporting this part of the Greater Manchester economy, GMCA is launching a Foundational Economy Innovation Fund to provide funding for projects that test new and emerging ideas. You can find out more by following the link below: https://www.greatermanchester-ca.gov.uk/what-we-do/economy/foundational-economy-innovation-fund/ We anticipate that many of the people and organisations who take part in the project will not be familiar with innovation management or practices and might not have received funding for innovation before.
