  • The UK has long been a world leader in developing ground-breaking technology, and we are determined to enhance that position as we begin to kickstart our economy following the coronavirus pandemic.
     
  • Seven major research and development projects, including in Cardiff, Liverpool, Edinburgh and Bristol, will receive a share of £400 million of Government and industry funding. The money will support projects such as zero-emission tech for maritime vessels, smart packaging to cut food waste and new health products to combat infections.
     
  • By working with the private sector and our world-class universities, we are backing new ideas that will create jobs and boost skills in every part of the UK for years to come.
