SUPA PIPSS Fellowship Extension - original grant ST/F003633/1

这项申请寻求从STFC扩展到为期4年的奖学金，以在苏格兰大学物理联盟(SuPA)范围内和之外发展KT。要求提供22,215英镑，作为对研究金的20%捐款。东道主缔约方、可持续发展行动计划和格拉斯哥大学将为该项目提供62,101 GB和30,000 GB的额外捐款。GB 114,336的项目总价值包括在SUPA各机构再部署一名专注于业务发展的有经验的全职研究员两年。该项目的额外目标产出将是：-1。GB 400万美元，用于通过延长期实施的合作研究项目。这是建立在研究金初始阶段已经获得的XXXM资金的基础上的。这些项目将为相关合作伙伴带来新的产品、流程和市场机会。4专注于或致力于创建新企业的剥离公司或项目。在近年来充满挑战的经济环境下，实现这一目标变得更加困难。推动这一水平的新企业组建仍然很重要，因此，有意将延期的目标设定在较高水平。协作工作和新企业创建之间的平衡认识到，必须寻求多种KT路线--在某些情况下，这将通过新成立或剥离的公司实现，而在其他情况下，将通过与现有企业合作实现。SUPA PIPSS研究员在开发多机构活动方面发挥着主导作用，这些活动侧重于大学研究的知识转移(KT)，使STFC、参与组织和英国整体经济受益。该研究员还利用SUPA研究中的协同效应、商业联系的广度和现有的支持网络来显著提高KT成果。迄今为止，这项工作非常成功，在某些领域基本实现并超过了最初的目标。

This application seeks an extension from STFC to the 4-year fellowship awarded to develop KT across and beyond SUPA, the Scottish Universities Physics Alliance. The sum of £22,215 is requested as a 20% contribution to the Fellowship. Additional contributions of £62,101 and £30,000 will be brought to the project by the host parties, SUPA and The University of Glasgow. The total project value of £114,336 covers the deployment of an experienced full time Fellow focused on Business Development across the SUPA Institutions for an additional two years.Additional target outputs from the project will be:-1. £4.0 million funding for Collaborative Research Projects secured through the extension period. This builds on the already generated funding of XXXM secured during the initial phase of the Fellowship. These projects will lead toward new products, processes and market opportunities for the partners involved.2. 4 Spin-out Companies or Projects focused or working toward new venture creation. This target has been more difficult to achieve in the challenging economic climate of recent years. It is still important to push for this level of new venture formation and so the targets for the extension are intentionally set at a high level. The balance between collaborative working and new venture creation recognises that multiple KT routes must be pursued - in some instances this will be through new start up or spin-out companies, while in other circumstances it will be through working with existing businesses. The SUPA PIPSS Fellow plays a leading role in developing multi-institutional activities focusing on Knowledge Transfer (KT) for university research that benefit STFC, the participating organisations and the UK economy as a whole. The Fellow also takes advantage of the synergies in research across SUPA, the breadth of commercial connections and the existing support networks to markedly increase KT outcomes. To date this has been very successful with the initial targets being largely met and exceeded in some areas.
