The University of Manchester’s Intellectual Property Commercialisation Company, UMIP Ltd, has won the Business Impact category at the Unico Awards which recognise and celebrate the impact of innovation. Unico is the UK’s leading knowledge transfer membership association and UMIP’s Dr Rich Ferrie,(pictured above) picked up the Business Impact Award at the Association’s Gala Dinner at Brighton Racecourse in June. The Impact Awards were open to all sectors of research that have made an outstanding impact through successful knowledge transfer. Awards were also made for a series of novel innovations in two other award categories: Environmental Impact and Public Policy and Service Impact. They recognise and celebrate the success of collaborative working and the process of transferring knowledge and expertise from the research base of higher education and the public sector for the wider benefit of society and the economy.
