We work with our members and the R&D community to elevate the contribution and functioning of the wider research system. This includes work on research infrastructure and institutes, support for innovation and the regional dimension of R&D.
The research system is the environment that supports and enables innovation, including research institutes, regulation and the regional dimension of R&D.
Building a better environment for business R&D
CaSE’s current major project of work is a focused look at the needs of business R&D in the UK.
We are very grateful to LifeArc for their sponsorship of this project.
As part of this work, we are conducting a series of roundtables with stakeholders across the business research and innovation landscape to explore how the fundamentals of the R&D system support or deter business R&D investment, and how the UK Government can attract and support businesses looking to start or grow R&D activity in the UK – you can read the write ups of these discussions below.
