The Innovations Partnership Schemes (IPS) are designed to transfer technology and expertise developed through STFC funding to the marketplace in partnership with industry and other academic disciplines. STFC technology or expertise must be integral to the project. The technology or expertise can be developed with STFC funding at UK higher education institutes, STFC laboratories, CERN, ESRF and ESO (European Southern Observatory).
A Standard IPS project provides a maximum project value of £150k per annum, over a period not exceeding three years.
Mini IPS provides the facility to make an application for a small project, up to £150k over a period not exceeding 12 months. Mini IPS applications are reviewed alongside the Standard IPS scheme using the same timelines. It will have a lighter touch assessment than for the Standard IPS.
IPS closing dates are every four months. Next deadline is 4th may 2016
