Five start-up businesses founded by students and recent graduates from the University of Edinburgh have secured almost half a million pounds in grant funding awards between them.
The five young companies, all supported by the university’s commercialisation service Edinburgh Innovations, have been awarded around £100,000 each through SMART:SCOTLAND grants.
The recipients are smart bin developer bennu.ai; cleantech start-up Danu Robotics; robotic glove business BioLiberty; digital mental health platform eMoodie; and audio design technology company Black Goblin Audio.
