University of Lincoln

The University of Lincoln is a comprehensive public university with a modern, city-centre campus and an applied research culture. Industry engagement is built into its model through co-located facilities at a dedicated science and innovation park and long-term partnerships with global manufacturers, utilities, and regional SMEs. Specialized food manufacturing and packaging testbeds at its south Lincolnshire campus provide pilot-scale lines for process development, while links with regional NHS trusts and a medical school enable clinical research and evaluation. Research draws competitive support from UKRI councils, Innovate UK, and the National Institute for Health and Care Research, alongside partnerships with industry. A dedicated technology transfer and enterprise office supports IP management, licensing, and spinout formation.
