Is there a minimum requirement of funds that should be earmarked for pipeline from the broader challenge fund? Would it be acceptable if no investment from the DIFYE was made into any company coming through the broader challenge fund pipeline?

There is no minimum requirement, the aim is to ensure that there is alignment and leverage the CFYE grant portfolio. We envisage coordination to take place with the CFYE to enable this where possible. In this regard, we would like to refer to Q&A page on the website.
