Innovate UK - Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) linked to Emerging and enabling technologies Round 2
The Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) scheme helps businesses to innovate and grow. It does this by linking them with a university and a graduate to work on a specific project.
Each KTP is a three-way partnership between a business, an academic institution and a graduate. The academic institution employs the recently-qualified graduate who works at the company. The graduate, known as the ‘associate’, brings new skills and knowledge to the business.
A KTP can last between 12 and 36 months depending on the project and the needs of the business. It is part-funded by a grant. The amount businesses need to contribute is different for SMEs and larger companies.
2017/18 close dates for submission are aligned with Innovate UK’s sector and open competitions:
- Health and life sciences round 2 - 12 April 2017
- Emerging and enabling technologies round 2 - 10 May 2017
