Yesterday morning I attended a meeting about the Transport iNet at Loughborough University.
The Transport iNet brings together businesses, sector organisations and universities, all with a common area of interest, innovation expertise and capability within this market sector. Its work is guided by a Strategic Advisory Panel (SAP) whose members cover a cross-section of the transport industry: aerospace, automotive, marine, motorsport and rail. The overall objective of Transport iNet is to increase the level of innovation in the East Midlands and in doing so, improve business competitiveness, margins, sustainability and growth.
The Transport iNet is set up to allow individual sectors to work together, share ideas, technologies, intelligence, innovation and create a link between operational industries and the academic community. This is quite a challenge for the transport industry as its different sectors can be extremely diverse, with different aims, customers and supply chains. However there are areas of common interest, for example environmentally friendly power generation or sourcing stronger and light materials for use in manufacturing.
There are grants available for businesses to implement innovative changes to their business.
