How to Apply

Potential applicants are strongly advised to discuss possible applications with the appropriate
university contact and/or technology transfer officer (see 'Contacts'). A complete application includes:

• the application form (signed)
• a Gantt chart to illustrate planned activity, milestones and deliverables

Email submissions are acceptable, but are only accepted from the appropriate institutional contact. A signed ORIGINAL of the application form must be received by the Regional Co-ordinator (this can be submitted up to 5 days after the deadline). Click for details of rules and eligibility.

Proposals are submitted 'in confidence' and are treated as such. The partners have concluded a collaboration agreement to protect applicants and ensure the confidentiality of submissions.

Innovation Fellowships are awarded through periodic competitions. These will be announced across the partner HEIs, with the next awards competition scheduled to open later in the autumn.

Applicants for Innovation Fellowships should be aware that in view of the likely demand against available support, there is a limit on the numbers of submissions each university may reasonably submit and local technology transfer officers may need to prioritise institutional submissions.
