Grant for SMEs
If you are a small or medium-sized company (SME) and would like to partner with a particular university for the first time in order to develop a new product or process, you can apply for part-funding of such a programme through a new fund aimed at supporting new relationships between SMEs and universities. It is important that your company has not previously been awarded funding for working with the same university.
The closing date for applications is 31 March, and the work must be completed by 31 July.
The project must relate to the development of new products or processes, have a clear route to market, be intended to be the start of a longer term relationship. If you want further details or you are looking for an academic partner for a project, let me know.
Regards,
Margo
