Applications sought to take on Digital Greenhouse

Anyone interested in taking on Guernsey's Digital Greenhouse, set up to drive growth in innovation and entrepreneurship, after the States announced it could close can now apply.

In August, the Committee for Economic Development announced it would the close in its current form unless a private company or charity came forward to run the "innovation incubator".

Since that announcement, several businesses and organisations have come forward with ideas for the future of the service.

The committee said it intended to continue some grant funding to deliver some "essential services" to entrepreneurs, including those supporting new business start-ups.

Applications can be made via the States of Guernsey's e-tendering portal with a closing date of 9 November.
