Invention for Innovation (i4i) FAST Call 4 Awards
The available budget is approximately £1.5m.
The NIHR Invention for Innovation (i4i) Programme is launching another round of FAST - Funding At the Speed of Translation.
FAST is aimed at innovators in need of a small amount of funding to answer a specific question or to fund a single piece of activity to advance healthcare technologies and interventions for increased patient benefit. Awards are designed to address an evidence gap and innovations must have demonstrated experimental proof of concept as a minimum.
i4i FAST Call 4 will support the development of innovative healthcare technologies for acquired brain injury (ABI), including the prevention, diagnosis and management of ABI as well as recovery from ABI.
Call 4 provides between £50k to £100k of funding for projects lasting between 6 and 12 months. FAST Awards are designed to have a rapid turnaround, and Awards must start by 1st February 2025.
You can find further details about FAST by reading the i4i FAST Guidance for Applicants and i4i FAST FAQs.
