UK sector innovation is on the map

Posted on: 03/08/2017

Knowledge Transfer Network today launches a range of UK sector innovation maps.

 

Designed to provide a visual dynamic representation of the UK sector innovation landscape, these maps allow users to easily and quickly source data within an otherwise complex and confusing ecosystem.

The maps give a representation of the UK current capabilities and activities which help identify and drive opportunities in innovation, with some maps providing further insight into funders, Innovation centres, networks & research & training programmes.

As easily navigated, uncluttered tools the maps have already proven themselves to be a key resource in supporting the innovation network for which the Knowledge Transfer Network is already well known among businesses, government and academia.
