How it works
1. Tell us what you need to test
A confidential, no-obligation discussion to explore your goals and assess whether a KTP could be right for your business. You do not need a fully formed project to get started. Many businesses start with a challenge or ambition, and together we shape it into a clear, well-defined project suitable for KTP funding.
2. Feasibility and quote
We work with you to shape your idea into a clear, well-defined project suitable for KTP funding and jointly develop the proposal. Funding applications are competitive but well supported, and we guide you through the full application process.
3. The work
We lead and coordinate the recruitment process, working closely with you to develop the role and select the right KTP Associate. Together, we recruit a highly capable person who will work full-time within your organisation to deliver the project.
4. You get the results
The full-time KTP Associate leads day-to-day delivery, supported by the academic team and our KTP Team. Your input is strategic rather than operational, typically involving brief weekly guidance and decisions.
