Dear all,<br>
<br>
This message is to draw your attention to the Encompass scheme which
RKES is running to provide funding to work with Scottish SMEs -
typically £5k, with potentially an additional £5k underwritten by
the EPSRC Impact Accelerator Account if the proposed project stems
from work funded by an EPSRC research grant (active or expired).<br>
<br>
The funding can cover staff, consumables or facility access
(including, for example, the Archie-West HPC). Once the final report
is signed off the funds will be transferred to your nominated/agreed
finance account within the department (e.g. your group account). <br>
<br>
There is about £20K left in the Encompass account at present and as
there is no application deadline, I encourage you to apply early.<br>
<br>
You will find more details on the scheme below and the application
form and guidelines are attached.<br>
<br>
Best wishes,<br>
<br>
Paul<br>
<br>
