Enterprise Fellowships: call for applications

28/01/2008
BBSRC and The Royal Society of Edinburgh seek proposals to the Enterprise Fellowships scheme to support researchers who wish to play a key role in the commercialisation of their research. The Fellowships provide salary and formal business training, allowing the Fellows to focus on developing the commercial potential of their research over a 12-month period.

The Fellowships are available to academic staff, research staff and postgraduates with relevant experience employed by a UK Higher Education Institution or a BBSRC-sponsored Research Institute. The business idea may be in any area within the remit of the BBSRC provided the original research was largely funded through the Research Council.

The closing date for applications is 5pm on 4 April 2008. Interviews for selected applicants will take place in Edinburgh during early June 2008, with a view to the Fellowship commencing October 2008.

Application forms and further details are available from Dr Simon Cutler Tel: 01793 413243 / Email: (simon.cutler@bbsrc.ac.uk) or from the link below:
