Welcome to the North West Region Electronics KTN
The Electronics Knowledge Transfer Network services for the North West region are delivered by a team that is based in the Electronics Department at Bolton University.
The Technology Development Centre at the University of Bolton was established in 1992 as the regional support centre for the North of England under the Government's Microelectronics in Business programme. Support centres were funded to assist small companies incorporating electronics into their products for the first time or moving to a new electronics technology. The Government programme ended many years ago but the work of the Centre continues.
The Centre continues to help local companies by undertaking electronics development work, finding partners, research contracts and development funds. It is currently running four Knowledge Transfer Partnerships in conjunction with local companies and two more are under negotiation. The Centre is a member of the Electronic Design Partnership and has links to the new Technology Strategy Board -funded Electronics Knowledge Transfer Network.
