Platform will act as a matchmaker for companies seeking investment to grow and create investor linkages and angel networks for the cluster.

The cluster will help SME’s develop greater knowledge around bid writing for specialised funds such as Creative England/BFI and for developing SEIS/EIS and alternative finance sources. Platform will work with our key partners to develop a start-up and seed investment fund, targeted at innovative digital moving image companies, laying a strong foundation for future growth.

Platform will also encourage and help co-ordinate capital investment in physical resources such as studio space, screening rooms, post-production facilities and equipment hire.
