eBay Circular Fashion Fund 2023

eBay Circular Fashion Fund 2023

The eBay Circular Fashion Fund is back for another year. It’s their funding project in partnership with The British Fashion Council and if successful could land you up to £25,000!

We’re dedicated to fostering fashion’s circular economy, providing opportunities for businesses which bring new technology and services to make us think differently about circular fashion – but we can’t do it alone.

The Circular Fashion Fund is on a mission to support innovative businesses that are using technology to change customer behaviour within the fashion industry. Together with The British Fashion Council, we’re on the lookout for forward-thinking solutions which will develop the way we think about fashion’s circular economy.

If you are in the circular fashion vertical, apply today! Successful applicants will get up to £25,000 in funding to grow their business, as well as a bespoke mentoring programme with industry experts.
