What it is for
This research project will evaluate the success of the Research Ventures Catalyst (RVC) programme, a pilot programme that seeks to boost UK Research & Development (R&D) innovation through establishing new kinds of organisational models in the UK. The project will involve a process and impact evaluation (interim and final) to provide learnings on the running of the pilot programme and to give an indication of the effectiveness of the funded organisations. Although a supplier may choose to subcontract part of its delivery, we are establishing a contract for a single supplier. If you choose to bid with subcontractors to deliver any of the requirements, you must be clear in your bid about who they are and to what service they will provide.
