This online event will give details about the ISCF Smart Sustainable Plastic Packaging Challenge (SSPP) – a £60m business grant support initiative from UKRI, and will provide you with the opportunity to:

  • Identify and link with new partners within the workshop theme
  • Build, and/or join, consortia forming around forthcoming projects
  • Discuss and refine your projects ideas with potential partners
  • Gather information on forthcoming ISCF SSPP grant awards

This event is aimed at companies and research organisations that are interested in Smart Sustainable Plastic Packaging projects and will include information about support from UKRI for businesses, the scope and eligibility, and the kind of projects UKRI are looking for. The workshop will then be a highly participative guided and facilitated consortia/project building and proposal development exercise.

Following the event the KTN is committed to supporting the building of projects that will be able to apply for funding from this funding stream, calls which are expected in the summer of 2020.

Due to limited spaces,The Knowledge Transfer Network operates an Expression of Interest scheme: KTN aim to confirm your space at the event within 10 working days from submission of your details.

Details of the Smart Sustainable Plastic Packaging Challenge may be accessed here: https://www.ukri.org/innovation/industrial-strategy-challenge-fund/smart-sustainable-plastic-packaging/

Who should attend?

The event is suitable for anyone with an interest in participating in projects within the scope of the event theme.

The aim is to have a variety of supply chain experience, with representatives from industry (small and large), academia, RTOs and other types of organisations with appropriate skills and expertise to address the SSPP challenge.

Note, the number of spaces available for each type of organisation is limited and KTN reserve the right to limit participation to one representative per organisation.

During the workshop

You will be assigned a working group based on the information you provide us with during registration. KTN endeavour to match you with other partners with similar interests in order to get the most value from the collaboration. The working groups are potentially the starting point to a consortium – a REAL consortium. You may swap working groups if you realise that your expertise/interest is more in line with another group/call topic.
