Ten £4,000 innovation vouchers are available to SMEs in the south east of England involved in using information, communication and sensor technologies to deliver health and social support.

The vouchers will enable SMEs to form new relationships with the South East’s world-leading universities, research hospitals and public research institutions, giving them access to facilities and expertise that will help them develop innovative products, processes or services.

There are lots of opportunities for working with universities and institutions who have expertise in electronics, engineering, computing, physiological monitoring, clinical trials and much more.

Such collaborations may produce new IP, new long-term partnerships and further funding opportunities e.g. through KTPs, i4i and ICE-T.

The deadline for applications is 2nd March 2010.
