ISV Start Up Grants...

Getting grants to help start or develop your software development business: Starting a business is hard, especially in today's economic climate, with money worries keeping people up at night. Here’s some useful information I found on getting grants: http://www.businesslink.gov.uk/bdotg/action/gsdr.l2=1073866776&r.l1=1073858790&r.s=tl

Ah, businesslink - I have heard many rumours there is some very useful stuff on there, the problem seems to be navigating your way around and actually finding the good stuff and what you want!

Hi Martin

Glad it was of use to you. You might also be interested in this blog site which is full of encouraging articles particularly in relation to ISV partners and programs “There was a fraudulent set of activities that started the butterfly effect of mistrust. Each leg of trust got knocked out. …Trust will come back when there are profits to be made. Everyone’s going to wake up and want to make money.” Don't be afraid to plan a new business- read Patty Seybolds blog for encouragement to new starters in the ISV partner business world. http://outsideinnovation.blogs.com/pseybold/2008/11/are-we-entering-a-golden-age-of-it.html
