“The project presents a great opportunity to really push this technology forward and get our products into the market place. The ability to access university resources, expertise and facilities is proving invaluable to the development of our product.” Director, Adam Kyffin
“We’re halfway through a collaborative Phd project with the Centre for Global Eco-innovation which is modelling complex scenarios to uncover potential product issues. We’ve already seen results which we didn’t expect until the end of the project.
