Does the United Kingdom government have any grants intended to encourage the creation of a new company?

While the United Kingdom government has provided grants within the past to assist with company creation, those opportunities have become rarer recently. Grants are available for a number of small business related reasons, some of which being designed to encourage entrepreneurs to open a small business in a given location. Some government grants are intended to aid funding for specific types of small businesses, meaning not everyone will be eligible for them.
