In a statement Mr Mandelson said that “Too often in this country we have been brilliant at research and let others walk away with the commercial benefits of development. If we are to develop new industrial capabilities in Britain, we have to get more D out of our R&D. Technology and Innovation Centres can play a vital role in bridging the gap between research and the market, strengthening our national capabilities in innovation.\”
The United Kingdom has been a leader in technological research in recent times (especially in Biotechnology) mainly due to the work undertaken by leading universities. Many Universities are now starting to follow the American model of researching and developing new technologies then bringing them to market in partnership with private organisations. The development of technology and innovation centres will undoubtedly make the UK a better place to do business for innovative businesses that require access to first rate facilities to succeed.
