This aligns closely to the UK Governments R&D roadmap, which states that delivering a trained R&D workforce for industry is a key component of how the UK academic and industry sectors must work together to address national innovation ambitions. Our skills training strategy includes:Doctoral Training: We have combined the NBIC Doctoral Training Centre in Biofilms Innovation, Technology and Engineering (BITE) with the BBSRC-funded industry-led Collaborative Training Partnerships (CTP) programme, programme to create a single national BITE training programme.Upskilling Industry: We have extended our training for industrial delegates and key stakeholders through access to bespoke technical modules, developed under BITE, to ensure cross-sectoral industrial upskilling.Entrepreneurship, Commercialisation and Connectivity: NBICs partnership with the Edinburgh Business School, Software Sustainability Institute and the Innovate UK, and SetSquared ICURe programme provide researchers and academics, at various points of their career, with entrepreneurial and business training to better understand the commercial environment. Flexible Talent Mobility Award (FTMA) Accounts enable NBIC to continue funding academia/industry exchanges, providing experience in technical and business skills.43'
