Further Information:
Innovate UK is partnering with the Industrial Biotechnology Innovation Catalyst (IBIC) to deliver an ICURe Discover programme, starting in September 2026, specifically to accelerate research and innovation in the north-west’s industrial biotechnology sector.
IBIC ICURe Discover is an 8-week, part-time hybrid market discovery programme designed to support researchers, technicians and academics in exploring their potential market. The programme aims to enhance market awareness and deepen the understanding of potential technology applications, with financial support of up to £2,500 for testing assumptions and market discovery.
Based on the lean start-up methodology, it applies the scientific method to business ideas. Participants will learn how to use this approach to gauge their potential customers’ opinions about their idea, product or service.
Programme details are now available on the?InnovateUK ICURe website.
Applications are open via the online application form.
