We leverage commercial investment through co-funding of research projects to provide value for money, to benefit from mutual and equitable collaborations, and to accelerate translation of scientific discoveries into patient benefit, at pace and scale. Additionally, this provides our researchers with an opportunity to develop business skills and facilitate further interactions in the future.
We work closely with Imperial College London’s – a team of specialised professionals dedicated to supporting academic-industry interactions. Together we identify and nurture industry collaborations with BRC researchers in areas of mutual interest, where novel ideas are co-developed and risks are shared. These range from individual projects and fellowships, to multi-year partnership programmes that align with our strategic research interests.
The infrastructure for supporting implementation of our industrial partnership strategy is well-established at Imperial. We work with Team and the to ensure efficient contract and cost negotiations, and to facilitate support, delivery and growth of industry-collaborative research projects through BRC-supported infrastructure and ‘bridging’ funding.
