KEYNOTE (The Henry Royce Institute)

National Materials Innovation Strategy

 \;

Wednesday 10.40 to 11.00\, Stage 4

 \;

Speaker:

Professor David Knowles FREng - Chief Executive Officer\, The Henry Royc e Institute

 \;

Keynote summary:

The H enry Royce Institute\, the UK’\;s national institute for advanced mat erials research and innovation\, identified the need for a unified approac h across government\, industry\, and the materials community to drive rese arch into practical solutions. Materials development poses unique challeng es as it spans multiple research disciplines\, supply chains and industrie s before reaching commercial viability. Previous attempts at cohesion have often focused narrowly on specific sectors or capabilities\, overlooking the complex interconnections between different research\, industry and policy goals.

This talk will describe the development of a strategy which \;is different& nbsp\;–\; it addresses the critical weaknesses in the lengthy and exp ensive commercialisation cycles of all material classes. It has been desig ned to break down the barriers between sectors and research\, development and commercialisation activities –\; creatin g coherency and accelerating the materials development cycle. Fundamentall y\, it is driven by its mission to create an effective and integrated mate rials sector that serves all of the UK’\;s i ndustrial growth.

The strategy:

  • Presents a vision for an economy transformed by materials innovation over the next 10 years.< /o:p>
  • Affirms the materials sector as the heart of UK industrial grow th.
  • Does not pick specific technology solutions to pursue but identifies opportunities for transformational innovations with the pot ential for global impact.
  • Establishes an approach for crea ting an agile\, responsive sector that adapts and delivers to emergent opp ortunities.
  • Advocates for the wider activities needed to c reate an effective innovation environment for the materials community.
