A Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) is a three-way partnership between a business or not-for-profit organisation, a team of academic experts and a qualified graduate, with the capability to lead a strategic business project.
KTP is a tried-and-trusted way to embed the knowledge of UEA talent in your organisation.
They help you explore a new idea or strategy, by adding the outside expertise you need.
Grant money is provided by Innovate UK, allowing you to access the latest academic thinking and work with a highly skilled graduate on a project to benefit your organisation.
We can help you manage and structure the project from start to finish, from securing funding to recruiting the right graduate for the role.
Our partners have previously used Knowledge Transfer Partnerships to unlock new markets, increase expertise, and improve how they work. These projects have a knock-on effect - raising profitability and efficiency.
