The Cardiff Capital Region (CCR) Challenge Fund invites applications from public sector organisations to partner with private companies to develop and test new ways of improving services for people in the area.
Three key challenge themes have been identified: accelerating decarbonisation, improving regional health and wellbeing, and supporting, enhancing and transforming communities.

The Challenge Fund will galvanise the collaboration between Cardiff University researchers and the CCR on local economic development...as we jointly strive to find solutions to key societal challenges.
The University’s Centre for Innovation Policy Research will join Y Lab to develop challenge proposals in collaboration with the public sector bodies and the CCR team.
More information including details of application process is available on Cardiff University's website.
