UK SBS PS16177 STFC Daresbury Business Support Pilot Programme

Notice Description

Introduction The Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) is one of seven UK Research Councils funded by UK Government. We collaborate extensively with industry and our long-term R&D underpins sectors which contribute billions of pounds annually to the UK economy in sectors including: space, pharmaceuticals, digital animation and communication, microelectronics and physics based manufacturing. STFC manages a number of Business Incubation Centres (BICs) to support entrepreneurial businesses to negotiate the challenges that can be faced in market entry. Our unique spectrum of incubation facilities, including the Innovation Technology Access Centre (I-TAC) facility, the ESA and STFC CERN BICs, are set within our dynamic multi-sector campus environment. A presence on Campus gives firms greater opportunity to interact with companies working on related technology, and raises their profile with prospective investors. We wish to develop our business support offering at STFC's Sci-Tech Daresbury campus, near Warrington in Cheshire, where businesses co-locate with STFC in the right environment for start-up companies to develop new products and gain investment, leading to growth and the creation of new jobs. The business incubation offering is also expanding with the recent opening of the Campus Technology Hub in late 2015 and more recently the new UK Space Agency Incubator.
