Today (6 March 2023) UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) confirms £250m to be invested in artificial intelligence, quantum technologies and engineering biology.
This will bring major technological advances in diagnosing and curing diseases, converting waste into fuel, navigating without satellites and many other areas a step closer.
One of the first major investments following the creation of the Department of Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) will help exploit and sustain the UK’s global leadership in these areas. To ensure it remains a developer and innovator of these technologies not just a consumer.
These platform technologies can be applied in multiple sectors and domains, including sectors yet to emerge.
