21.05.25 10.00am to 11.00amThe SHAPE of KTPs: Social sciences, Humanities and Arts for People and the Economy Industrial engagement &amp; Finding partner businesses &amp; growing your portfolio.Sometimes organisations can see an opportunity for growth, something that will supercharge their business, but they don't quite know where or how to start. That's when a Knowledge Transfer Partnership could help.Imagine having a specialist graduate, post-graduate or PhD student working closely with an expert academic, focused solely on bringing your idea to life. And having the UK Government fund a large proportion of that work. Often heralded as the World's best kept secret, Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTPs) turn 50 this year. That makes them the UK government’s longest running and most successful innovation funding programme, investing £50m each year in R&amp;D projects across a full range of sectors and business sizes. And companies that participate in a KTP programme are shown to grow at an exponential rate.As part of ongoing work to grow our KTP numbers and to coincide with their milestone birthday, we are hosting a series of developmental sessions for staff (and businesses) to debunk myths, provide insights, and forge connections. These will take place once a month between October 2024 and May 2025 on Wednesday afternoons. These will move between Talbot Campus and Lansdowne Campus.The session taking place on the 21st May, 2025 (10.00am to 11.00am) will focus on: The SHAPE of KTPs: Social sciences, Humanities and Arts for People and the Economy Industrial engagement &amp; Finding partner businesses &amp; growing your portfolioWith 1 - 1 bookable sessions afterwards withRachel Clarke (BUBS): rclarke@bournemouth.ac.ukFinn Morgan (SciTech): fmorgan@bournemouth.ac.ukMatt Desmier (FMC): mdesmier@bournemouht.ac.ukMary-Ann Robertson (HSS): mrobertson@bournemouth.ac.uk For further information on this event please contact roperv@bournemouth.ac.ukHow to get to BU:Lansdowne campus is located in the city centre and is easily accessed via bus and train links.
