This brochure introduces the 9 winners of the second Women in Innovation competition.

Innovate UK initiated the Women in Innovation campaign in 2016 when we found that just 1 in 7 funding applications to us for innovation projects came from women. The campaign’s objective was simple: get more women innovating in business.
