The Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTP) is a UK-wide programme that helps businesses improve their performance and productivity through better use of knowledge, technology and skills within the UK Knowledge Base.
The Business School at Anglia Ruskin University currently supports Hexcel, a global leader in advanced composites technology, based in Cambridgeshire. This project helps Hexcel to meet a core strategic need, supported by a three-way partnership: the company (Hexcel), the university (Anglia Ruskin University) and a graduate (a KTP associate). The partnership’s primary aim is to support business growth.
Throughout this project, Hexcel has benefited directly from the latest research conducted by our leading academics. Having access to this knowledge has resulted in noticeable improvements in quality and operations.
