Working With Us

Short-term projects and long-term collaboration with both Industry and Academia are core to the LVV's offering, and we are always interested in developing new partnerships and collaborative projects.

Our research staff have expertise in a wide range of areas and can assist you in solving industrial and research challenges, testing of structures and components and designing systems and software. We can also advise our business partners on how to increase production, reduce costs and drive innovation.

Horizon Europe Guarantee

As a research group based in the UK we are often asked about Horizon Europe and the funding of collaborative research. The UK government has guaranteed funding for eligible, successful applicants to Horizon Europe who are unable to sign grant agreements with the EU prior to formalisation of the UK’s association to the programme. The funding will be delivered through UK Research and Innovation. The agreement ensures that eligible, successful UK applicants will continue to be guaranteed funding, supporting them to continue their important work in research and innovation. 

Eligible, successful applicants will receive the full value of their funding at their UK host institution for the lifetime of the grant. Successful awardees will be able to remain in the UK to receive this funding, which will provide reassurance for future collaborations, and support UK researchers whether association is confirmed, or otherwise.

Further details regarding the scope and terms of the current extension are available here on the UKRI website.
