We provide health-focused expertise to help industry partners develop a bespoke collaboration to ensure maximum benefits, supporting along the entire collaboration pathway from early discussions, negotiations through to post-collaboration relationship management.

Our Industrial research collaborations can assume various models such as individual project collaborations, structured engagement or strategic alliances spanning multiple faculties. We develop bespoke industrial engagement strategies with the express goal of achieving real benefit to patients and contribute to UCL being recognised as the world’s best at translation.
