About ICURe Exploit
The Exploit phase of the Innovate UK ICURe programme provides after-support for ICURe Explore teams recommended for spin-out with ICURe support or licensing.
If teams are recommended to spin-out with ICURe support, they will receive up to 12 weeks of intensive support through Spinout and Business readiness to prepare them for company formation and business growth. In addition, ICURe spin-outs can access other dedicated programmes through ICURe supporting partners that accelerate their development to be more attractive to investors. Please note that ICURe Exploit funding and programmes provided by ICURe supporting partners is a competitive process.
If teams are recommended to license, they will receive tailored support to prepare for and exploit license opportunities.
