The UK National Quantum Technologies Programme (NQTP) is marking its tenth anniversary at the UK National Quantum Technologies Showcase 2024 on 8th November in London.

Innovate UK’s £1.5 million MARCONI project is set to transform the landscape of quantum key distribution (QKD) by developing and demonstrating high-fidelity, modular, and scalable receiver modules.

Entrepreneur and winner of Innovate UK's 2023 Young Innovators award, Orlando Ely, has turned to additive manufacturing, better known as 3D printing, to bring a device that could revolutionise the way people recover from strokes and cognitive impairment a significant step closer to launch.

MintNeuro has launched the ‘EXPLORE’ project, supported by a £100,000 grant from Innovate UK as part of the Biomedical Catalyst Feasibility Competition 2023.

A real-life invisibility cloak, a London-to-Sydney flight in 3 hours, manufacturing in zero-gravity space, and worm-like robotics for disaster recovery, these are just some of the 50 emerging technologies that could shape our future.

The Quantum Technologies Showcase, which last year attracted more than 1,000 delegates from 34 different countries, will host the latest ground-breaking applications of quantum technologies currently in development and in the process of being commercialised.

Instrumentation manufacturer, Prior Scientific, is launching new products after achieving a 'revolutionary' leap in nanopositioning accuracy - after funding from Innovate UK.

Nearly 400 delegates attended Women Innovate 2022 earlier this month. The event, which is hosted every year by Innovate UK KTN on International Women’s Day, is the highlight of Innovate UK’s annual Women in Innovation programme.

Innovate UK, part of UK Research & Innovation (UKRI), has announced a new funding competition that will put the UK at the forefront of the research and manufacture of PEMD (power electronics, machines and drives).

The innovation group, Knowledge Transfer Network (KTN) has announced details of an industrial showcase event focused on robotics and artificial intelligence (RAI). The event takes place in Manchester on the 12th March 2019. Up to 500 delegates from industry, as well as technology providers and academia are expected to attend. 

A 26 tonne electric refuse vehicle is on trial in Greenwich after the Royal Borough of Greenwich secured funding from Innovate UK as part of a consortium. The project comes from a bid as part of an open competition called the Low Emission Freight and Logistics Trial – Stream 2, funded by Innovate UK and the Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV). The technology will be developed by Magtec, a company that designs and manufactures elect...

  Innovate UK is providing funding to support the next stage in development of a bio-active implant, Smart Spacer, which will counter post-operative infection following knee surgery. The programme has the potential to substantially reduce the £300m that these complications cost the NHS.

A UK initiative designed to study data critical to the efficient operation of driverless cars has secured funding from Innovate UK that will put the country at the forefront of connected and autonomous vehicles. The Atlas initiative, a consortium of UK businesses, will use the funding to research and develop communication between vehicles and roadside infrastructure.

The first driverless cars to be tested on the streets of London will resemble the electric passenger shuttles currently in use at Heathrow Airport. The group behind the project is currently adapting the pods for use on the roads. Greenwich is one of four places in the UK where driverless pods and public reaction to them are being tested.

  At Aerodays 2015, Europe’s flagship event for research in aeronautics and air transport, 20th to 22nd October in London, Innovate UK is promoting the best of British aerospace innovation.
