Liverpool Hope University

Liverpool Hope University is a small, teaching-led, research-informed university of around 5,600 students, with a distinctive ecumenical and community-oriented character. Its two-campus model combines Hope Park’s suburban setting and specialist facilities with a Creative Campus in Liverpool city centre. Industry engagement is supported through business-facing networks, consultancy, research and commercial contracts, Knowledge Transfer Partnerships, placements, and links with regional businesses and professional bodies. Research and knowledge exchange draw on competitive funding from UKRI-related bodies, the British Academy, the Royal Academy of Arts, and international funders such as US AID. Dedicated staff support proposal development, partner formation, contracting, consultancy, and intellectual-property protection, creating a clear route from collaboration to applied impact.
