Industry-led and industry-aligned
Scotland’s Innovation Centres (ICs) have a unique mix of industry experience, connections and real-time knowledge, gained from our intense engagement with industry. This spans the whole spectrum of our sectors from spinouts and SMEs, to international companies and investors.
Guiding this industry engagement are clear goals: simplifying innovation, and helping deliver commercial and economic benefits from cost efficiencies to growth.

- information-sharing events
- workshops and company meetings to identify innovation needs
- project involvement and collaboration
- postgraduate placements
- signposting to other innovation support or funding
