UK’s research organisations launch new collective

The launch of the National Research Organisations Group, brings together more than 100 leaders from government, research, industry and funding organisations, providing an authorativive voice on science, research policy and long-term investment.

The event formally introduced the NRO Group as the collective voice of more than 40 of the UK’s national science and research organisations, including various AIRTO members such as BGS, LGC, NPL, and many more. Together, these organisations represent a unique national research capability dedicated to advancing science that benefits people, communities, the economy, the environment and national resilience.

The NRO Group was established in response to growing recognition that the UK research landscape would benefit from stronger strategic alignment, clearer governance and greater visibility of the capabilities provided by national research organisations. Bringing together these organisations under a single alliance, has never been more important: providing a coherent and authoritative voice on science, research policy and long-term investment.

AIRTO looks forward to continuing to working closely with the NRO Group as an allied organisation.
