What are the key elements?

• Join a cohort of SETsquared Commercialisation & Innovation Fellows.
• Take part in a plan of activity and a comprehensive training and development programme with external provision and events.
• Collaborate with corporate partners, investors, and entrepreneurs.
• Get dedicated time to explore and develop your own skills, networks, and pathway to impact.
• Benefit from shadowing Research & Innovation colleagues to explore the working specialist areas.

The practicalities

• This is a fixed-term internal Fellowship project opportunity to commence from November 2024 on a part-time basis (minimum 0.5FTE) for 6 months at that level.
• The programme will buy out your time on your current salary with on costs (usual increments and adjustments will also be met). Your contract of employment will remain with your principal employing institution for the duration of the opportunity, and your current Line Manager will continue to be so.
• The travel budget will enable travel to meetings and to develop relationships and networks eg with businesses, catapults, investors, KTN etc.
• You will need to be available for an induction within the first two weeks of commencing the programme and are expected to participate in relevant activities and events to promote the work that you undertake both during and after the award.
