EMRS DTC Opens its Annual Call
The EMRS DTC has opened its Annual Call for research proposals, open from Friday 10th October 2008 and closing on Wednesday 31st December 2008 for projects starting in April 2009.
The call is open to Universities, SMEs, Research Centres and Large Companies with relevant, low Technology Readiness Level (TRL) research capability in Electro-Magnetic Remote Sensing and it's enabling technologies.
Participating organisations gain full funding by the DTC for their research, while retaining ownership of their IPR. The sponsors of the DTC, UK MoD, gain rights of use for internal UK government purposes. The EMRS DTC consortium companies gain rights of use only for EMRS DTC purposes. This mechanism leaves science providers free to exploit their research in both military and civil domains. The framework has been created in this manner to attract the best researchers and most innovative ideas towards UK defence research.
The call for proposals will be supported by two Bidders' Conferences, the more relevant one being:
Monday 3rd November 2008 at Selex Sensors & Airborne Systems, Edinburgh
It is necessary to register for this Bidders' Conference. Please send an email detailing your name, organisation, telephone number and e-mail address to Caroline Harvey.
The EMRS DTC Bidder’s pack can be obtained from Caroline.
