About the event
The Research Technology Platform (RTP) Department is hosting an event to celebrate 10 years of the RTP programme. We invite members of the University and external partners from academia and industry to join us as we showcase how the RTPs have grown over the past decade and facilitated innovation in research and development at Warwick and beyond.
About the RTPs
Warwick’s RTPs provide an integrated network of world-class facilities and expertise that enable researchers to perform outstanding science. In 2024 we are celebrating 10 years of the RTP programme, which has grown from 5 RTPs when it first started in 2014, to 13 RTPs and 70 dedicated staff members today.
The RTPs are open to access for researchers across the University as well as external clients from industry and academia, supporting innovation at regional, national and international scales. Each RTP is operated by a dedicated technical team who are experts in their fields and provide bespoke advice, analysis and training. Visit the RTP website.
