Knowledge Transfer Partnerships provide resources and expertise to thriving organisations who wish to innovate, expand or improve their performance.

Knowledge Transfer Partnerships can help your company:

• Find an innovative solution to help your business grow
• Increase your competitive advantage
• Access recently qualified people to spearhead new projects
• Access experts who can help take your business forward

How does it work?
The aim of Knowledge Transfer Partnerships is to strengthen the competitiveness and wealth creation of the UK by the stimulation of innovation in business through collaborative partnerships with the UK knowledge base.

With the help of a specialist Knowledge Transfer Partnership Consultant, you will identify a university, college or research organisation that has the right expertise for your business. Together you will then define and agree a project that will enable you to draw on their expertise and apply it to your business.

The agreed project could be for any length of time between one and three years, with the overall aim of helping your business make a step change in an area that you have identified as high priority for your business.

Am I eligible?
Businesses of all sizes in most industries and commercial sectors can take part. There are some limitations on the type of project and the sectors that can be supported.

Please contact your nearest office to find out more.
