I am a Knowledge Transfer Adviser for North Lincolnshire, Hull and Doncaster, responsible for developing and managing a portfolio of successful Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTPs) between business and academia.

The Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTPs) connect businesses that have an innovation idea with the academic expertise to help deliver it.

I have a diverse background in business development and knowledge transfer gained from both the academic and commercial sectors. I have experience in knowledge transfer, innovation, product and service development, regional economic regeneration, and marketing and sales. My knowledge areas include biology, biomedical, materials and engineering, and manufacturing enabling digital technologies. My primary role will be facilitating collaboration between businesses and research institutions. The cooperation between companies and the knowledge sector is crucial in driving innovation and supporting economic growth, and my role as Knowledge Transfer Adviser (KTA) will be instrumental in facilitating this process.
