TTOM Next Deadline 30 April 2010
TTOM Awards are now OPEN for the 3rd round of applications.
Closing Date: 5pm 30th April 2010
TTOM provides small amounts of discretionary funding aimed at helping smaller companies to access technology expertise within the Scottish universities. The awards cover a range of high growth markets associated with new technology development. The aim is to enable technology transfer projects by offering grants to support feasibility studies, particularly with a cross-sectoral and inter-disciplinary focus.
TTOM encompasses emerging technologies in sectors such as Software, Microelectronics, Energy, Life Science, Digital Media, Optoelectronics, Electronics, and Sustainable Transport.
TTOM Awards will be paid directly to eligible SME companies, who will then contract with relevant research groups in higher education institutes to provide the assistance required. The maximum level of grant will be £5000, paid at a maximum rate of 75% of the overall project costs, with the remaining 25% being cash or in-kind contributions from the client company Support in finding appropriate academic expertise can be provided by Interface. Grants are awarded on a competitive basis to the best projects, via quarterly calls.
