Keele University

Keele University is a comprehensive public research university in North Staffordshire, based on a single, self‑contained campus with a collaborative, industry‑facing culture. The co‑located Keele University Science and Innovation Park hosts companies alongside university facilities, enabling on‑site collaboration, access to specialist resources, and flexible space. The Smart Energy Network Demonstrator turns the campus into a small‑town‑scale ‘living laboratory’ for integrated energy and infrastructure technologies, while clinical translation is enabled through close partnership with Royal Stoke University Hospital and the University Hospitals of North Midlands. Research is supported by competitive UK funding through UK Research and Innovation councils and the National Institute for Health and Care Research, alongside Innovate UK and industry collaborations. Dedicated business engagement and technology transfer services streamline IP, licensing, and spin‑out support.
