INDUSTRIAL LINKS
In partnership with "high-tech" industry in the UK and
elsewhere, the Institute aims to work to develop new technologies for
advanced particle accelerators, thereby ensuring that British companies
are able to supply major components for accelerators and accelerating
systems of all kinds throughout the world. To this end, the Institute
already works closely with the Accelerator Industry Club of the Faraday
Partnership in High Power Radio-Frequency Engineering (a joint
initiative in the UK of the Department of Trade and Industry, the
Research Councils, and industry), and it is developing new links with
high-technology industry both regionally and nationally.
The Cockcroft Institute is thus positioned as a unique
platform in which radical new ideas and developments, driven by the
demands of basic science, are pursued to fruition with major industrial
development and commercialisation always in mind.
