Driving innovation-led growth in Nottingham
What the MeTAP Technical Hive offers
The Hive is a structured, expert-led growth intervention delivered as part of MeTAP 2.0, a UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) supported business growth programme.
It is designed to provide Nottingham City–based innovators with focused access to high-level subject matter experts across regulatory, IP, clinical validation, manufacturing, commercialisation, legal, and funding domains.
The MeTAP Technical Hive, taking place on Wednesday 18 March from 1pm – 3:30pm, is not a general workshop. It is a diagnostic-led, pre-mapped, 1:1 expert clinic designed to accelerate company progression at critical stages of growth.
The intervention will be delivered online and structured around:
- Pre-event diagnostic assessment
- Strategic mapping to relevant delivery partners
- Structured 1:1 breakout consultations.
- Consolidated written recommendations post-event
Aimed to accelerate company progression, de-risk key strategic decisions, and deliver measurable growth outputs in line with UKSPF programme objectives.
Accessing this level of advisory support independently can be costly and fragmented. MeTAP Technical Hive provides:
- Coordinated, structured access to experts
- Targeted engagement based on company need
- Efficient time-bound intervention
- Clear documented next steps
This aligns with MeTAP 2.0’s objective of supporting high-growth, innovation-led businesses within Nottingham City.
