A4I is a programme that gives UK businesses of any size access to expertise and facilities to help solve problems that they have been unable to tackle using standard technologies and techniques. It might be around product reliability, cost or product lifetime, for example.
The detailed scope of Round 5 will be released in mid-July and the main competition briefing will be held in London on the 31 July. Prior to the competition opening, there will be a series of roadshow events organised during July.
An overview of the A4I programmes and examples of previous projects can be found at A4I.info
The Manchester briefing event, co-hosted by the Henry Royce Institute, will also give attendees the chance to speak with the Royce about materials-related projects or opportunities, as well as learning about the Institute’s resources for business.
