Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTPs)
June 20, 2023 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm
Session facilitated by Michael Wilson from Business Development
Session Overview:
Ever wondered how you may be able to secure funding to apply your research in a commercial setting? Knowledge Transfer Partnerships are fully funded projects that are designed for academic experts to work in partnership with an external organisation (on average for a two-year period )to embed innovation and new capabilities, employing a recent graduate to undertake the work. Recently, a new scheme, Accelerated Knowledge Transfers to Innovate has been trialled for rapid, short-term projects (2 – 4 months) required to kick-start an innovation or scope an issue. Come along to learn how to get involved.
This session will take place online via Microsoft Teams and will be recorded. To book your place via Eventbrite, please click here.
