Eight innovative new projects announced today aim to transform the sustainability of the UK’s foundation industry companies and supply chains.
The projects have secured a combined £24 million of UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) funding for industrially scaled demonstrator projects through the transforming foundation industries (TFI) challenge.
The competition, delivered by Innovate UK, ran from January to March this year, following an expression of interest phase at the end of 2021.
The opportunity forms part of the TFI challenge’s work to fund research and development projects that demonstrate future technologies, capable of addressing the resource or energy efficiency challenges.
