Helping UK SMEs to SPRINT

UK businesses can access funded university expertise to accelerate the development of new commercial products based on space technology and space data.
The SPRINT (SPace Research and Innovation Network for Technology) programme enables SMEs to access funded support for collaborative projects up to £150,000 to benefit from the expertise, data and technology from five of the UK’s top space universities including the universities of Leicester, Edinburgh, Southampton, Surrey and the Open University.
The programme supports businesses in the innovation and development of new technologies, services and applications, helping them to enter the growing space sector with existing and new products, and using technologies, facilities or data from space to innovate products for their markets.
