Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTP) is a UK-wide programme designed to help organisations improve their competitiveness, efficiency and performance by working with universities.
A KTP involves a partnership between your business (the business partner) and the University (the knowledge partner) and also includes one or more recently qualified persons (Associates) to facilitate the transfer of knowledge.
