Funding

Everyone needs money to support their business idea(s), but sadly there aren’t many grants around and the ones that are available tend to be for small amounts of money, or very specific about what they will or won’t pay for.

2018 is proving to be an incredible year of investment for our Young Entrepreneur of the Year, Douglas Martin! Douglas is the founder of Edinburgh-based start-up MiAlgae, which has developed an innovative product to harvest high value Omega 3 oils from micro-algae grown in wastewater. MiAlgae catches nutrients from wastewater sources, such as by-products from whiskey production, and uses it to grow microalgae high in phosphates and nitrates, which is then used as a supplement in livestock feed. In May, Douglas took home the title of Young Entrepreneur of the Year and the £30,000 prize fund at the Shell Enterprise Awards to develop MiAlgae’s technology further. Shortly after, he received a huge £500,000 boost to expand the MiAlgae team and to build a pilot plant for its technology. Just last week, Douglas won an impressive £100,000 at the Scottish EDGE awards – the highest amount awarded on the evening! An incredible achievement - well done Douglas!
