Business Support

We can help you to find ways to grow your organisation, access skills and expertise from our diverse knowledge base, and recruit and develop new talent.

You can use our facilities to test and develop ideas and processes, open up new markets and invest in our technology, and find out about funding and R&D tax breaks for collaborative research with a trusted partner.

We invite you to join and network with our campus community at our events, or work alongside us by hiring office, laboratory and hot desk spaces when you’re back for a reunion or in the areas.

What is Eco-Innovation?

  • The development of new practices, processes, products or services that support environmentally positive development

  • Central to achieving net-zero climate targets, addressing environmental crises and delivering the Sustainable Development Goals

Better for business, better for the environment

The centre led a Science Innovation Audit published by the Department of Business Energy and Industrial Strategy demonstrating that the North West of England has the knowledge, skills, place and capacity to be world leading in the development of technologies for clean and sustainable growth. As a result the centre now leads on Eco-I North West as is a partner for the Low Carbon Eco-Innovatory project (LCEI).
