Knowledge Transfer Account
Building your business success with our research excellence
The Surrey Knowledge Transfer Account (KTA) can provide your organisation with a range of opportunities including
* Innovative research outputs and the capability to match industrial needs;
* Access to funding for Pilot Projects and Demonstrator Programmes;
* Increased speed and reduced costs of innovation via industry/academic exchange;
* Access to a wide range of laboratory facilities and academic expertise.
The Surrey KTA, funded by the EPSRC and in partnership with NPL, is designed to unlock your organisation's potential by providing easy mechanisms for you to make best use of the capabilities stored within the University and our key partners.
We focus on three areas of technology (‘platforms’) that incorporate International Centres of Excellence in areas for which we are renowned:
Each Platform has a specialist knowledge exchange professional (a Platform Director), with experience in connecting academia to industry, working closely with a senior Academic Lead with an international research reputation and experience of exploitation of research outputs.
University of Surrey staff, wishing to apply to the KTA for funding, can access the on-line application form and guidance here.
