Innovation-to-Commercialisation of University Research (ICURe) is the UK's leading early-stage research accelerator programme. It guides researchers through the process of refining and validating the commercial potential for their leading-edge science. This can include time buyout, business advice, mentorship and up to £300,000 in grant funding. ICURe is increasingly popular across the University, but isn't always straightforward to navigate - this event helps you to understand what is available and how it all works. We will have talks from those who manage the ICURe programme and some real-world stories from researchers who have been through the programme.

Lunch will be provided, so, as well as hearing from our guest speakers, you'll be able to chat with them, talk through your ideas and gain insight into how to apply and what to expect from ICURe.
