This RTP-led national technical platform will empower the Research Technical Professional (RTP) community working in materials innovation and associated manufacturing technology through training, development and professional networking opportunities. The platform also works to increase the visibility of RTPs and break down barriers between silos across the materials innovation landscape.
The project is one of 11 UKRI Strategic Technical Platforms funded by EPSRC and the UKRI Digital Research Infrastructure programme to support and develop the RTP community.
