TSB Consortia Building Workshop (Food & Drink)
Edinburgh , Tuesday 30 July
Collaborative R&D – Food & Drink
The Technology Strategy Board is planning to launch a multi-million competition, which will fund business-led, collaborative R&D projects in the general area of ‘engineering solutions for agrifood production systems, from primary production to the food processing and manufacturing environment’.
This new competition should open sometime in the period August-October 2013, and up to £13m government funding could potentially be available.
Consortia Building Workshops
Two consortia-building workshops are being organised to help potential applicants. These workshops aim to help businesses and research-base partners to better understand the competition scope, and identify potential project partners.
The competition will include all facets of engineering science and engagement of agri-food organisations with sectors such as Space, ICT and Electronics, Sensors and Photonics (which may not have fully recognised opportunities to apply technologies across the agri-food supply chain) is particularly encouraged through these workshops.
These workshops are free but places are limited.
