OPENBRIGHT FOUNDATION

OpenBright was registered as a charity in 2020. From Autumn 2021, we plan to offer small grants to help women develop university-level research projects in computing and IT-related subjects. Our grants will be aimed at students studying for UK-based degrees or postgraduate qualifications in software engineering, creative/social technologies, robotics or related areas.

Analysis by Giving is Great

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

The Board composition appears to be rather static

Financial issues to consider:

A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
