Details

Elevate Great invests across the full innovation and implementation lifecycle, from early-stage ideas to proven solutions ready to scale. Whether enabling innovation, generating evidence, building partnerships, or accelerating growth, EG focuses on what it takes to turn promising ideas into better outcomes for people and communities.

Their priorities are to improve equality, expand opportunity, and create better lives. They back solutions with the potential to deliver this change - from digital innovation or policy change to system transformation or targeted interventions that address root causes and critical points of system failure.

EG takes a flexible approach to investment, providing seed funding, growth support, and, where needed, investing upstream in research and development, including through their in-house expertise and resources.

How to apply

Elevate Great doesn’t run a formal application process. When they create alliances for change, undertake in-house R&D, or discover something already developed by a business or VCSE (voluntary, community, social enterprise) organisation that’s proving successful in tackling a problem – they invest for impact.

If you’re as excited by the opportunity to do things differently – with a laser focus on what really works in prevention and early intervention – they'd love to hear from you. Use their "Contact us" form to get in touch.
