About
Support deployment-readiness R&D for AI systems that monitor, test or demonstrate compliance with standards and controls. This is the first phase of BridgeAI Deployment Catalyst. Applicants must choose the strand matching the primary purpose of their deployment; later phases are conditional and separately assessed.
Eligibility
Covers: Phase-one grant request of GBP 100,000–200,000 per consortium for three to five months, starting by April 2027 and ending by August 2027. Indicative later-phase funding is not part of this award.
Funded partners must perform their project work and principally spend and exploit the results in the UK.
A UK AI SME leads a consortium of two or three organizations including one eligible UK medium or large deployer. The solution must have an existing MVP and development beyond concept, around TRL 5–6; routine implementation and already widespread deployment are outside scope.
