We can help link you to the right partner. Through our Innovation Partnerships
Initiative we bring together companies and university researchers to work on specific
R&D projects.
The Innovation Partnerships Initiative can provide financial
support to encourage your company to undertake research projects with universities
and institutes of technology. If your company would like: -
A new perspective for your business through collaboration
A cost-effective approach to innovative product and process development
Then the Innovation Partnerships Initiative may suit your needs.
The college submits the proposal to Enterprise for approval
Enterprise will assess the proposal. This involves Business assessment & Technical
assessment
Recommended proposals are presented to the Industrial Research Commercialization
Committee for final approval. The college handles the proposal submission and
all routine project administration and applications are usually processed by Enterprise
within 6-8 weeks.

Through our Innovation Partnerships Initiative
we bring together companies and university researchers to work on
specific R&D projects. We work with groups of companies on building
longer term collaborative R&D programmes. Together companies can
make leaps in mutually beneficial technologies more quickly than
when working alone.
