The current programme is a 2 year pilot - the first round was launched on 6 September 2013 and closed on 15 January 2014. A total of 1543 people applied. People are setting up and growing different types of businesses all the time. We continue to work hard to provide the right support to make life easier for them all.<\/p> <\/p> www.gov.uk<\/a> is the home for Government services and information online. One of the tools available is the 'Finance Finder;' a searchable database of publicly-backed sources of finance.
