Connecting you to the UK research base

Since 2002, LTN has recruited a network of research scientists from over 250 leading university research departments covering medical/life and computing/physical/engineering sciences and design. LTN works with these scientists (known as Business Fellows), and their colleagues and knowledge transfer offices to accelerate knowledge transfer between academia and industry.

As a result, LTN is linked to 7,000 research-active academics in 40+ UK universities including Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial College London, University College London and King’s College London.

By introducing companies to the region’s research base, LTN has helped generate millions of pounds in turnover and introduce scores of new product lines.

In the 6 years ending June 2010 LTN generated

• 8,200 negotiations between companies and research scientists
• 1,750 of which resulted in collaborations

The vast majority of these collaborations were with businesses who had not previously collaborated with the university.
