Scottish EDGE is set to invest a further £1.5m in businesses with high growth potential, as the 20th round of awards invites 24 finalists to pitch their ideas on 6 and 7 December.
Having already invested £20m in over 500 businesses in the past eight years, the awards will welcome back categories including Net Zero EDGE, which launched last year with backing from the Royal Bank of Scotland to coincide with COP26.
In line with the Scottish Government’s commitment to becoming carbon neutral by 2030, businesses with a sustainable and ethical ethos at their core will all be contenders in this category. The finalists include ethical fashion designer Beira Moda, reusable plant-based water bottles maker S’wheat, and bespoke reusable face mask creator Mask Logic.
