Two organisations have pledged to a collaboration which will focus on driving innovation in a bid to boost growth and help companies thrive in North Wales.聽
M-SParc, Wales鈥 first Science Park owned by 澳门最快开奖直播, and AMRC Cymru have today signed an agreement to allow them to work in partnership. This will enable collaboration at all levels between the two organisations, ensuring companies receive wider access to support, skills, expertise and facilities that can drive their business forwards.聽
鈥嬧婱-SParc is the first dedicated science park in Wales, with a focus on low carbon, energy and environment, digital, and life science sectors. AMRC Cymru, which is part of the University of Sheffield Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) innovation cluster and a member of the High Value Manufacturing (HVM) Catapult, is a 拢20m state-of-the-art applied research centre, which was fully funded by the Welsh Government.聽 鈥嬧嬧嬄
鈥嬧嬧婽he team at AMRC Cymru helps foster collaborations and partnerships between industry, academia and government, to deliver cutting-edge research, development and innovation for better products and processes; and helps drive forward sustainable manufacturing technologies for net zero, creating the vital step-changes needed in the low-carbon transition.鈥嬧嬄
Collaborating on projects, working to secure joint funding, and focusing on outreach and skills, the memorandum of understanding (MoU), will allow M-SParc tenants and the wider ecosystem to benefit from the engineers' expertise and the valuable connections AMRC Cymru provides.聽
Pryderi ap Rhisiart, Managing Director of M-SParc said,聽 鈥We are thrilled to announce the new collaboration between M-SParc and AMRC鈥 Cymru鈥, which represents a significant milestone in our efforts to drive economic growth and diversification in North Wales. 鈥嬧嬧嬄
鈥嬧嬧溾婤y bringing together two powerhouses of innovation, we are confident that this partnership will unlock new opportunities and accelerate progress in key areas such as advanced manufacturing and high-tech engineering. We look forward to working closely with AMRC鈥 Cymru鈥 to leverage our collective expertise, resources, and networks, and to create lasting impact for our region and beyond."聽
The work both organisations undertake to upskill the younger generations, from workshops to training opportunities, can now branch out further, bridging both sides of north Wales and ensuring local young people are ready and able to take advantage of locally created careers in science, technology and engineering鈥. 鈥嬧嬄犅犅犅
M-SParc tenants will benefit from access to high-spec manufacturing facilities, and knowledge-sharing between the two sites. 鈥婣gritech is a key area for collaboration between both organisations, with M-SParc operating the AgriTech.Cymru鈥嬧嬧嬧 cluster group and AMRC鈥 Cymru鈥 developing specialist knowledge and capabilities in the field. Events and cluster links will also be a key part of the agreement, widening the reach of the clusters and leading to further collaboration and opportunities.聽聽聽
