Funding for IGGY

Securing income and support for IGGY is critical:

• University investment will be limited

• IGGY must become self-sustainable sooner rather than later

• membership fees will not apply for some time yet, so one source of

eventual income does not yet exist

• when fees are introduced they will need to be kept low – money from

other sources will allow the community to grow and remain diverse

• IGGY will develop organically and the rate of expansion will be

determined by income

Investment from partners can:

• be used for bursaries for the socially or

economically disadvantaged (cash or IT)

• sponsor of online or face-to-face activities (e.g.

projects, future IGGY U’s etc)

• be targeted to specific regions, socio-economic

groups or age ranges

• get entry to our corporate club

• provide pre-University scholarships

Funding

Splitting into Groups

• One potential source of funding / fund-raising idea we could explore

• One idea for an IGGY-unique event

• One indicator as to how we will know IGGY has been successful.
