Analysis for Innovators (A4I) website launched

The popular A4I programme now has its own website

Analysis for Innovators (A4I) is a programme that gives UK businesses of any size access to cutting-edge R&D expertise and facilities to help solve problems that they have been unable to tackle using standard technologies and techniques.

The website, a4i.info, provides a wealth of background information, links to the project partners, a guide to applying, case studies and a comprehensive list of all funded projects.

A4I is an investment from Innovate UK, as part of UK Research and Innovation, alongside funding partners the National Physical Laboratory (NPL), the National Measurement Laboratory at LGC (formerly known as the Laboratory of the Government Chemist), the National Engineering Laboratory (NEL) and the Science and Technologies Facilities Council (STFC).

Together the funding partners run some of the most advanced facilities, techniques and technologies available in the world. A4I matches the best UK scientists and facilities with companies that have existing, possibly long-running issues, a different approach from other Innovate UK funding competitions.

Three successful rounds of the competition have already been run and the fourth is now open, closing on 20 March.

The website has been developed by KTN with support from the A4I partners and can be accessed here: A4I.
