We are part of an extended team which also oversees the flexible lab and office space at Cardiff Medicentre.

At Cardiff Innovations, our team also works closely with colleagues across the University to ensure tenants are fully supported and connected.

From accessing academic expertise through Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTPs) to recruiting talented students for short-term placements via the Work Experience Team, we collaborate with Cardiff University’s Business Engagement and Partnerships team to link tenants with the right people, programmes and opportunities across the university, to help their businesses thrive.

The Cardiff Innovations team is brilliant – always welcoming, proactive, and supportive. Their ongoing guidance, connections, and dedication really help the businesses grow, collaborate, and thrive.
