Bridging for Innovators Programme Launched
The Science Technology Facilities Council (STFC) has announced a new Bridging for Innovators (B4I) programme, due to run until March 2021 and funded by the Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund and will run until March 2021.
B4I aims to help companies overcome difficult product, manufacturing or process performance issues by leveraging more than £2 billion worth of government investment in large-scale scientific infrastructure.
The programme will give companies access to advanced analytical technologies, supporting expertise and capabilities through STFC's large-scale science facilities located at the various campuses around the UK, including Harwell, Daresbury and the Royal Observatory in Edinburgh.
This is a unique opportunity which could lead to significant developments in a business. Companies wishing to apply for B4I must:
• be a registered UK-based business (of any size)
• have a manufacturing base for the relevant product in the UK or provide the relevant service in the UK
Full details of the funding under the B4I programme, including how to apply, are available here.
