Technology For Industry Ltd
(TFI) was founded in 1992 to help build businesses based on emerging and disruptive technologies. We bridge the gap between research groups and industry establishing ourselves as UK leaders within the micro and nanotechnology consultancy sector. Our client base has extended from the UK across Europe into Canada and the USA.
As an independent company, we have no exclusive alliances with third parties, hence the advice we give to clients, and the work we deliver, are based only on what is best for our clients' business.

He regularly teaches across Europe on the medical applications of the technology on courses presented by the Swiss Training organisation FSRM.

Technology for Industry is transfering technology from the research base into volume manufacturing.
We work with Universities to maximise the value in their IPR pipeline by selection of the most appropriate route forward, whether that be by licensing technology, creating joint ventures with supply chain partners or by spin out company formation.
A search for new technology begins with a thorough assessment of the market and product needs so that the most appropriate technology can be selected.
Whether your team is strong technically or business orientated, we can provide you with the matching skills, knowledge and experience to use technology to grow your business.
