Materials Innovation Programme Coordination Network Pluses

This grant funds Network Plus projects that coordinate materials research communities. You can get up to £4.75 million to establish networks around four themes from the National Materials Innovation Strategy. The funding brings together researchers and industry partners to work on materials innovation. You must be based at a UK research organisation that can receive EPSRC funding. The grant focuses on coordination and community building rather than direct research. Applications appear to be accepted on a rolling basis with no fixed deadline. This is specifically for academic institutions, not businesses or charities.

This grant is for academic researchers at UK universities and research institutions. You need to be eligible for EPSRC funding and able to coordinate materials research networks. This is not for businesses, charities, or individual researchers outside academic institutions.

Apply through EPSRC's standard funding application process. You need to be at a UK research organisation eligible for EPSRC funding. Contact EPSRC directly for application guidance and requirements.
