Is Wing the right fit?

A guide, not an assessment. Nothing you answer here is stored or sent. If it points to an application, there is no fee to apply.

  • Field. Primary health, renewable energy or waste management.
  • Stage. Wing comes in from proof of concept, not an idea or research still underway.
  • Use of funds. R&D, production line, or marketing once a product is ready. Not overheads, rent, utilities or accounting.

Applying is not a funding approval.

Please do not include confidential technical detail, trade secrets or attachments at this stage. Wing will be in touch about what to prepare next, which is where detailed evidence and documents belong.

Your application is read by Dr. Christine Arasaratnam, Wing’s Research & Operations Manager, who is the first to review every application.

Wing will sign a confidentiality agreement before you send detailed material. Your details are not shared with advisors, co-investors or other parties. See the privacy policy.
