Evolve is inviting businesses in Dorset to apply for its Innovation Programme.

The initiative, delivered in collaboration with design and engineering agency Element Creative and digital development and strategy agency Interpin, is aiming to enhance the way businesses of all sizes bring new products, services or processes to fruition.

Open to any businesses based in Dorset, the programme is prioritising those with at least two years of operation, five or more staff, a minimum turnover of £100k and active operations in the UK.

Participants can expect up to 11 hours of dedicated support from a professional advisor who will guide them through the exploration of their ideas and the creation of a strategic plan. This assistance includes a through review of the businesses case as well as technical support.

Businesses can register via an online form on the Evolve website, after which they will be contacted to provide more details about their business and idea.

Participants will then be connected with the relevant agency based on the nature of their concept leading to a virtual kick-off call to initiate the collaboration.

The programme includes Evolve’s business support and advice, scheduled to align with participants’ needs and a three-hour facilitated workshop to encourage in-person collaboration and idea refinement.

Finally, participants will receive a comprehensive write-up of their roadmap and next steps.

Evolve Founder Warren Munson said: We’re really excited to partner with Element Creative and Interpin for this programme.

“Encouraging collaboration and support to accelerate business and innovation very much aligns with Evolve’s mission to provide comprehensive advice and expertise to local business owners.

“The Evolve Innovation Programme presents a fantastic opportunity to drive innovation within your business.”
