KnowledgeRICH is changing
From 1 April 2009 access to the region's university expertise will be channelled through Business Link Yorkshire.
The continued commitment to making the region's university expertise available to business means it is right for Business Link Yorkshire, the gateway for the business community, to become the first point of contact for businesses.
The service has been further developed with the recent introduction of innovation vouchers, a government scheme funded in the region through Yorkshire Forward.
Innovation vouchers provide small to medium sized businesses (SMEs) in the region with financial support to engage with Yorkshire's universities and other academic institutions to help their business grow and develop. Vouchers up to the value of £3000 can be redeemed to fund the cost of this practical knowledge and expertise.
To find out more about innovation vouchers and your eligibility to apply for a voucher or to access university expertise contact 08456 048 048 or visit: http://businesslink.gov.uk/yorkshire/innovation/ .
