Durham University Partner Event: Finance Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTPs)
Hosted by Durham University Business School, in collaboration with the Advanced Manufacturing Forum (AMF)
Join Durham University Business School, in collaboration with the Advanced Manufacturing Forum (AMF), for an exclusive partner event exploring how a Finance‑focused Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) can help manufacturing and engineering organisations grow, strengthen resilience, and compete more effectively.
This session is aimed at businesses navigating complex financial decisions, building investment readiness, or looking to enhance governance and long‑term financial capability. A Finance KTP offers a practical, significantly funded route to accessing world‑class academic expertise embedded directly within your organisation.
What is a Finance KTP?
A Knowledge Transfer Partnership (KTP) is a UKRI‑funded programme connecting businesses with leading university expertise. Through a Finance KTP with Durham University Business School, participating organisations can benefit from:
- A dedicated, full‑time finance specialist embedded within the business
- The specialist is employed by the university, removing employment administration
- Direct access to Durham University’s finance academics
- A collaborative project designed around your strategic priorities
- Significant UKRI funding, reducing cost and financial risk
This is not consultancy or a short‑term intervention. It is a structured, long‑term partnership designed to deliver measurable and lasting impact.
What to expect
Attendees will have the opportunity to:
- Hear directly from academics and businesses with first‑hand KTP experience
- Ask questions in an informal, discussion‑led environment
- Explore whether a Finance KTP could be the right fit for their organisation
Venue: Room 1001–1002, Waterside Building, Riverside Place, Durham, DH1 1SL
