What is the Pathways Fund?

The Pathways Fund, administered by inspirent on behalf of the Scottish Government, provides grants of up to £150,000 to organisations that are widening access to entrepreneurship to under-represented and under-supported groups and communities in Scotland.

Funding is available to support projects that:

• Expand access to entrepreneurship for women and under-represented or under-supported groups and communities.
• Deliver skills development, mentorship, networking and collaboration for female entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs from under-represented groups.
• Promote entrepreneurship as a tool to tackle economic inactivity
