How can the West of Scotland KTP Centre help me?

We’ll work with you to identify an academic team with the right knowledge and skills to assist your organisation.

We’re here to help guide and assist you in defining a project that will enable you to draw on that expertise.

Once your funding is approved we’ll help you recruit your Associate and be beside you every step of the way to make sure your KTP is as successful as possible.

"KTP is one of the best kept secrets within the UK for development of people and providing value to a business. The program is the best thing possible for a business giving access to academia and focus that you would not get from a standard graduate program. Our KTP Matthew has been instrumental in the development of our cutting-edge platform. Matthew has been the glue between our innovation team and the university, allowing us to develop a product that, on our own we would really have struggled with. The three-point approach with academia, Innovate UK and us as an industrial partner is hard to beat. I have been involved in bringing graduates into businesses for over 10 years and this has been by far the best experience/outcome I have found across this time."

Jamie Burns, Ailsa Reliability Solutions 

 

"The KTP program has been invaluable in driving innovation within our business. It has allowed us to access cutting-edge academic expertise, develop new capabilities, and accelerate our growth in a competitive market."

Graham Wilson, WB Alloys
