Government-Backed Innovation - Supported by Innovate UK

The August Race Oceans Assured™ initiative is supported by Innovate UK, the UK Government’s national innovation agency.

Innovate UK exists to drive productivity, economic growth and global competitiveness by supporting business-led innovation. As part of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI), Innovate UK provides funding and support to organisations developing genuinely new solutions to complex technical, environmental and societal challenges.

Support from Innovate UK is highly selective. Funding is awarded only to businesses that demonstrate clear innovation, technical credibility, strong commercial potential and the ability to deliver measurable impact. Innovate UK backing is therefore widely recognised as an endorsement of both technical merit and strategic relevance.
