UK Research Councils' Knowledge Transfer Portal and consultation launched

The UK Research Councils, RCUK, have launched a Knowledge Transfer Portal to help researchers and businesses find funding for knowledge transfer opportunities. Intended as a 'one-stop-shop' to give details of all seven research councils' knowledge transfer schemes and activities and how to get involved into four areas: Collaborative Research; Collaborative Training; People Exchange; and Commercialisation and Development.

The Research Councils are also seeking personal responses to a consultation on their Knowledge Transfer schemes, activities and mechanisms. They would like individuals to complete 16 questions by June 2009 to report to the Research Councils Knowledge Transfer and Economic Impact Group in the Autumn. Responses may be made online.
