SUMMARY:Analysis for Innovators (A4I) Programme 2018 Roadshow: Cardiff
DESCRIPTION:The Analysis for Innovators (A4I) programme is different in that it targets competitiveness and productivity head on\, by offering cutting edge R&D\, expertise and facilities to UK companies that want to solve an analysis or measurement problem from within their existing business.  This could be an issue of precision or accuracy of measurement on a production line for example\, which you have been unable to solve using standard available technologies and techniques. \nSince this is addressing real problems you have with existing processes in your business\, we believe it will be of interest to companies that didn’t previously consider applying for R&D funding. Any size business with any type of measurement or analysis problem are able to apply. \nInnovate UK have partners on this programme – NPL\, STFC\, NEL & LGC – who run some of the most advanced cutting-edge facilities\, techniques and technologies available in the world\, here in the UK. \nThey will be making their expertise available through initial free technical consultancybrokered to successful applicants to A4I\, and then offer financial support to allow industry access to their unique facilities and expertise in optional follow-on R&D projects. Innovate UK expect the programme to particularly appeal to manufacturing companies\, especially those involved in complex supply chains\, but companies applying may be from any sector. \nAnalysis for Innovators Brokerage will open in March 2018\, but Innovate UK and KTN are running a special series of roadshow events around the UK from mid-February to early March to explain the programme and how it differs from other funding competitions\, both in terms of its scope and the online application process and schedule.  Note that this process has been revised from that used in the first running of A4I in 2017\, and so we encourage you to attend this time\, even if you have heard of A4I before. \nA4I will be run as a two-stage scheme\, and at the first stage\, we are not requiring you to describe the project that you want to do; instead you will need to describe the problem: its nature\, any techniques you have already tried and the value to your business of solving it.  Success at the first stage will enable the brokered consultancy sessions for addressing the problem.  These sessions may lead to follow-on projects\, and a number of funding options for these will be outlined and available to those wanting to take them up as a second stage. \nThis very different approach and means that a very different application process is necessary.  Come and hear about the £4m competition and a different approach to Innovate UK funding at the A4I Roadshows being held across the UK from mid-February to early March. \nFind out more here

SUMMARY:Digital Health Ecosystem Wales

It means that we are not making best use of valuable staff time. \nTo quote Clinical Engineering “We need to aim for the right equipment in the right place at the right time” thus improving the patients journey. \nAs Karen Winder\, Head Of Clinical Systems\, explains below\, a system of tracking patients staff and resources could mean that a patient’s stay in the hospital would be less stressful and staff and valuable resources such as operating and screening slots can be optimised. \nNHS Wales is looking at identifying suppliers who might have technology and other solutions that could be part of the answer to this challenge. \nOn the day a number of slots will be available on a first come first served basis for companies to present their solutions or ideas to other participants and to meet with NHS Wales. \nNHS Wales is looking at identifying suppliers who might have technology and other solutions that could be part of the answer to this challenge. \nOn the day a number of slots will be available on a first come first served basis for companies to present their solutions or ideas to other participants and to meet with NHS Wales. \nFind out more here

SUMMARY:Innovate UK - How to win funds and influence people
DESCRIPTION:Workshops for SMEs \nGrant funding is sometimes seen as a source of free money\, but that’s a misnomer – it is as free as winning a sale or equity investment. Constructing a compelling\, competitive case for public funding to support your project takes a significant amount of effort. There is no magic formula for securing grant funding\, but with a great idea and a well-presented case you have the highest chance of success. \nThis half-day workshop will explore what a good grant proposal does and does not look like\, and will help you develop your ideas into a compelling and concise format suitable for Innovate UK applications as well as other grant programmes. The workshop will be delivered by innovation experts from across the Innovate UK family\, and you will hear from local businesses that have successfully applied for funding. \nBenefits of attending: \nLearn about what is required in writing a successful grant application\nHear from business owners that have experienced the grant application process\nReceive practical advice on best approaches to application questions\nConnect and network with like-minded businesses \nWho should attend? \nThis event is aimed at all SMEs\, but specifically for those more established companies who may have not previously considered using Innovate UK grant funding to help grow their business\, or who have not been successful in their previous applications. \nWe are hosting a specific workshop for organisations or individuals that provide any type of grant application service relevant to UK businesses & researchers (e.g. proposal preparation or review\, grant or partner finding\, project & consortium management). \nExpression of interest: If you are interested in attending this workshop please register to indicate your interest. As places are limited you will be contacted by 23 February 2018 to confirm if you have been allocated a place. \nAgenda \n09.00      Arrival and refreshments \n09:30      Welcome \n09:35      The UK funding landscape \n09:45      The Innovate UK application process \n10:45      What is an Assessor looking for? \n11:15      Case Study 1 \n11:40      Tea Break \n11:50      Case Study 2 \n12:15      Panel Discussion/Q&A \n12:45      Networking and light lunch \n13:15      Close of workshop \nFind out more and register here
