NESTA is the UK's only national endowment, created by Act of Parliament in 1998 to find new ways of supporting and promoting talent, innovation and creativity across science, technology and the arts. Our awards range from physicists to filmmakers, poets to plasterers, engineers to educators, their driving ambition to benefit the UK economically, socially or culturally (more in NESTA Facts). Our funding programmes How we work Invention and Innovation, Fellowship and Education work differently but are all committed to pushing boundaries, exploring new ideas and stimulating fresh thinking. Today's feature Supporting young creative talent? With many of Britain's best young minds forced to abandon their ambitions or go abroad, "Cool Britannia" is looking distinctly lukewarm. Is there really nowhere for young talent to turn?
