The University of Brighton has set up a new base in the Manor Royal Business District in Crawley, to work alongside businesses, development organisations and community partners in the Gatwick Diamond area.
Services will include Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) programmes, which are funded up to 67% by government, to bring university experts and a high-calibre graduate to work on a strategic project which will help the business to grow: specialist training which can be tailor-made to suit needs of a particular business; internships, peer to peer mentoring groups and business networking with university experts. There will also be a new series of ‘Research Insights’ seminars designed take the latest research findings directly to businesses that could use the research in developing innovative products and services. The seminars will be delivered in partnership with Gatwick Diamond Business.
