A mutual aspiration to generate engineering and artificial intelligence-driven solutions that deliver real-world, industrial impact has led to the formation of two new Innovation Centres by first-time partners the University of Huddersfield and TWI Ltd, namely the Precision Engineering Innovation Centre and the Applied Artificial Intelligence Innovation Centre.
Representatives from the University of Huddersfield and TWI marked the establishment of the two Innovation Centres with a Contract Signing Ceremony on 16 December 2024, at the University’s campus in Queensgate, Huddersfield.
The purpose of the new Innovation Centres is to create research and technology capability, and develop technical-future research strategy, in their respective areas of interest. Each Centre’s research plan will be supported by the securing of grant funding from public sources such as Horizon Europe and UK Research & Innovation. This will enable them to generate a portfolio of collaborative projects aligned with their research areas, providing long term sustainability as well as access to new skills.
