Knowledge Transfer Partnerships

What are they?

This grant scheme supports the placement of a University undergraduate or undergraduate in your business. It aims to foster greater links between business and Further and Higher Education to help develop and exploit new ideas. KTPs are managed by the Technology Strategy Board.

Who are they for?

Companies with limited resource wanting to explore a new technology or market. Knowledge Transfer Partnerships enable companies to identify the most appropriate source for the knowledge or capability they are seeking from within the UK's knowledge base (universities, colleges or research organisations).
