UMIC/UMIP Low Carbon & Environment Competition
16 Feb 2011
Open to all members of University staff
UMIC and UMIP are delighted to launch The Low Carbon and Environment Competition 2011 and now welcome competition entries for innovative low carbon projects.
If you have an innovative idea for a new low carbon technology, service or behavioural change, then we want to hear from you.
The idea does not need to be overtly technology-based or a commercial idea. We want to discover as broad a range of ideas as possible.
The competition will be held over a series of heats:
- Heat 1: 7 February to 11 March 2011
- Heat 2: 14 March to 15 April 2011
- Heat 3: 18 April to 20 May 2011
Eligibility:
- The competition is open only to members of staff at The University of Manchester.
Prizes:
- Up to £5K of commercialisation support from UMIP
- Business mentoring and accommodation support package from UMIC
- UK patent application preparation and filing from Appleyard Lees
- Entry to a Winning Business Academy course from Winning Pitch
- Bespoke marketing and communications solutions from Frontier PR
