What does Nesta supply to the public sector?
Its contracts fall mainly under research and development, business and professional services, CPV 65. Categories are derived from the CPV codes published on each award notice.
How many public sector contracts has Nesta won?
15 since 2021, of which 15 were awarded to it as the only named supplier and 0 are shared with other suppliers, usually a place on a framework. This counts award notices published to Find a Tender and Contracts Finder, so it is a record of published awards rather than of total revenue.
When do Nesta contracts come up for renewal?
5 contracts held by Nesta have an end date within the next 18 months, the earliest on 26 Feb 2027. End dates are published in the original award notices, so they are visible well before any re-tender is advertised.
Where does this information about Nesta come from?
From contract award notices published by the buyers themselves to Find a Tender and Contracts Finder under the Open Government Licence. Coverage starts in 2021 and is comprehensive from 2023, so contracts awarded before then, and any award not published to those portals, will not appear.

How these figures are worked out
- The last 12 months: award notices published from 8 November 2025 to 7 November 2026, each contract counted once however many suppliers or rows it has. The same window is used everywhere on this page.
- Most of its current contracts end in the next 12 months: 5 of its 5 contracts with an end date still to come end by 7 November 2027. Shown when that is more than half, with at least 5.
- Won work from 3 new buyers in the last 12 months: Buyers with a contract awarded to it and published since 8 November 2025, and none before. Counted by organisation, not by spelling.
- Since 2021: these figures count published award notices from January 2021 onward, the point at which this database begins, and are comprehensive only from 2023. Contracts awarded before then, and any work not published as a public award notice, do not appear. This is a record of published contracts, not of turnover.
- Most recent award: recorded 22 Oct 2026 (2 weeks ago).
