A Catapult is an independent, not‑for‑profit technology and innovation centre set up by Innovate UK on behalf of the UK government to help close the gap between research and commercialisation and drive UK economic growth.
Catapults bring together business, academia and government, acting as trusted, neutral convenors that provide access to specialist expertise, cutting‑edge equipment and a team of experts.
By de‑risking innovation and supporting the development, testing and scaling of new products and services, Catapults help organisations get technologies to market faster, strengthen supply chains, build skills and create new markets across key sectors of the UK economy.
