Science Creates and UKRI Engineering Biology Accelerator Programme

Science Creates has recently launched a brand new Engineering Biology Accelerator Programme, in partnership with the UKRI. The accelerator will provide Engineering Biology scientists with the expert support needed to transform their research into startup businesses. The programme comes with financial support and is open to anyone with an existing Engineering Biology startup in its very early stages, or anyone wishing to launch an Engineering Biology startup. Applications are open now, with the expression of interest closing on 27th July 2023.

Throughout July, the programme team will be travelling to cities across the UK for our Accelerator Roadshow. The event series will provide further information on the programme, showcase regional research enterprise services and grow a nationwide network to support innovation in Engineering Biology. We will also be giving advice on how to apply to the accelerator. The Roadshow will be visiting Manchester, London, Edinburgh and Bristol. All events are free to attend and you can register by clicking here.

This opportunity will be of great interest and benefit to entrepreneurial researchers working in the field of Engineering Biology

If you would like to find out more about the accelerator, please register for one of our roadshows or contact the accelerator team.
