Working with businesses and industry to provide expertise and expand collaborative research opportunities

Strategic Partnerships

Our strategic partnerships are developed over time from shared interests and activities in research, business development, student opportunities and activities that create mutual value.

A strategic partnership works both ways. We benefit from engagement with industry, government, charities, and organisations. Partners also benefit through high impact research collaborations, joint industry projects, development of intellectual property, accessing expertise and exploring opportunities to work with our students, graduates, staff and researchers.

We look to forge exciting and innovative relationships, and offer a range of tailored activities for organisations of all sizes.
