About the event

Are you planning to develop or support a KTP application in the coming months? Join us for this webinar to learn about the significant changes being introduced for KTP Round 4 (2026-27), including updates to the application form and revised project cost guidance. These changes represent the most substantial update to KTP application requirements in several years and will apply to all Round 4 applications.

Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTPs) have been helping businesses innovate and grow since 1975 by bringing together ambitious businesses with the expertise of universities, colleges, research organisations and Catapults. Through a KTP, partners work collaboratively to address strategic innovation challenges, accelerate growth and create lasting economic impact.

If you’re new to the programme, you can learn more on the Knowledge Transfer Partnerships website.
