Making the UK a global hub for innovation
The introduction of new or significantly improved products, processes, and investment in R&D, machinery, or new knowledge is central to driving economic growth.
We’re committed to the government’s vision of making the UK a global hub for innovation. Specifically, we support Innovate UK’s mission to help SMEs grow rapidly.
As a leading provider of business innovation advisory support, we’ve have helped thousands of companies by assessing their potential and developing plans to boost their growth. Through in-depth one-to-one support, we combine our own in-house expertise in areas such as investment readiness with a wider network of national and international innovation bodies.
Working with a key university partner, we have developed a unique Leaders in Innovation programme in which businesses benefit from academic evidence-informed insights that, through advisory and coaching support, are translated into practical change projects.
