A new space related funding call from the Technology Strategy Board has been posted on the web platform - connect, which might be of interest to MIA members.
The Technology Strategy Board is to invest up to £2m in feasibility studies to stimulate innovation across the space industry, ensuring that small and micro businesses in the UK are well-equipped to respond to society’s greatest current and future challenges. Feasibility studies should last up to three months and each cost no more than £33,000 in total. The Technology Strategy Board will fund 75% of the project cost (up to £25,000). Projects may be collaborative or carried out by a single company. A briefing will be held in London on January 19th 2011 and it is strongly recommended that applicants attend.
