About this Event
Join us as we mark half a century of innovation, collaboration and impact through the Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) scheme – one of the world’s most prestigious programmes linking academia and industry since 1975.
Teesside University has proudly delivered KTPs for over 40 years. In the past five years, we've doubled our projects, reflecting the region’s growing drive for innovation and the value of academic–business partnerships. With 90% of our KTPs rated ‘very good’ or ‘outstanding’ by Innovate UK, we’re proud to be recognised as a sector-leading provider.
