香港六合彩 awarded 11 Fellowships in 拢78 million government scheme

24 September 2019

The Future Leaders Fellowship scheme will invest in 78 scientists and researchers, with 香港六合彩 receiving the most awards of any one institution.

The rising stars of UK science and trailblazing small businesses will receive significant government support to help answer some of the world鈥檚 biggest scientific challenges and help turn ideas into viable products and services.

On Friday (20 September 2019), the Government announced a 拢98 million investment, split across the 11 fellowships and 20 University Enterprise Zones. These will allow both UK researchers and small businesses to seize the vast opportunities in science and innovation and industries of the future.

A large portion of this funding was secured by a diverse range of 香港六合彩 projects, tackling issues including violence against women, HIV in Africa, self-healing organic semiconductors, and the sociopolitics of religion.

Science Minister Chris Skidmore said: 鈥淒elivering on our research and innovation ambitions means putting people first, whether they are just starting out in their career or are leading major projects in academia or industry.

鈥淭hese inspirational Future Leaders Fellows will generate the ideas of the future, helping to shape science and research for the 21st century. But to realise the full potential of these discoveries, their ideas need to be taken out of the lab and turned into real products and services, where they can actually change people鈥檚 lives for the better.

鈥淭hat鈥檚 why we are creating 20 new University Enterprise Zones, helping local start-ups to co-locate in universities to build the businesses of the future 鈥� all inspired by university research.鈥�

The East London Inclusive Enterprise Zone (ELIEZ) is one of these 20 University Enterprise Zones whose funding has been allocated by Research England, part of UK Research and Innovation. These UEZs will provide vital specialist support to small businesses at the cutting-edge of pioneering industries.

The scheme will facilitate knowledge sharing between academics and entrepreneurs by opening collaborations with universities and businesses to help them take their ideas from prototype to profit. The UEZs will provide the facilities and expertise to help local SMEs to forge crucial partnerships, driving local growth and job creation.

UK Research and Innovation Chief Executive, Professor Sir Mark Walport, said: 鈥淭he Future Leaders Fellowships will enable the most promising researchers and innovators to become leaders in their fields, working on subjects as diverse as climate change, dementia and quantum computing.

鈥淯KRI is committed to creating modern research and innovation careers and our Future Leaders Fellowships aim to support and retain the most talented people, including those with flexible career paths.

鈥淭hese 20 University Enterprise Zones funded by Research England will be important focal points for collaboration in business-friendly environments, driving innovation and delivering benefits that will be felt across economies at the local, regional and national scale.鈥�
