There is no doubt that innovation is the key to competitiveness but the investment required in terms of both time and money, is often beyond the reach of many single companies, particularly SMEs, who need to find alternative forms of support when their ideas are too far from market or too high risk.
Pera is the largest provider of public sector support to SMEs in the UK and is specifically tasked with managing national and regional technology signposting and partnering services for SMEs. Most successfully innovating SMEs in the UK will have been supported through public programmes managed by Pera or through enabling technology development delivered by us and part financed by national or European public programmes.
To see examples of the type of innovations we are currently working on visit research & development projects , or if you have a particular product or process innovation that you would like to discuss in more detail, please email us at innovation@pera.com.
