  1. Michael Lawrence Head of Special Projects michael.lawrence@tsb.gov.uk Driving Innovation in Space

  2. The Technology Strategy Board is... The UK’s Innovation Agency A national body supporting business innovation for business benefit for economic growth for quality of life

  3. How do we deliver?

  4. Where do we contribute most?

  5. How do we decide where to work? • Sectors where UK businesses can thrive • Supporting innovative companies in these sectors • Large global markets • Building the capability of the UK to address markets at the right time • Where our support makes a difference

  6. Technology Inspired Innovation • We build capability in the underpinning areas that enable a sure and effective response to market needs • Advanced materials, • Bioscience, • Electronics, photonics and electrical systems, • Information and communication technologies, • High value manufacturing • Nanotechnology • Emerging Technologies

  7. Challenge-led innovation • We aim to understand the needs of the markets and support the most innovative and competitive responses • Energy generation and supply • Environmental sustainability • Built environment • Creative industries • High value services • Medicines and healthcare • Transport • Space

  8. InnovationPlatforms • We work with Government as they address societal challenges to give business the future market definition they need to be competitive • Low Carbon Vehicles • Assisted Living • Low Impact Buildings • Detection and Identification of Infectious Agents • Stratified medicine • Sustainable agriculture and food

  9. We will inspire and enable people to play their part in the innovation economy We showcase successes We celebrate and will build a national confidence in the power of innovation We build networks We support knowledge exchange for individuals The Innovation Climate

  10. Knowledge Transfer Networks • National networks in a field of technology or business application, with international perspective • Bringing together business, research bodies and the finance community … • … to stimulate innovation through exchange of knowledge and expertise.

  11. Driving Innovation Driving Innovation Knowledge Transfer Network Portfolio Biosciences Electronics, Sensors & Photonics Nano ‘ICT’ (Digital Communications and Digital Systems merge fully by Mar 11) Chemistry Innovation Industrial Mathematics HealthTec and Medicines Energy Generation & Supply Materials Aerospace & Defence Environmental Sustainability Modern Built Environment Creative Industries Financial Services Transport

  12. Knowledge Transfer Partnerships • High calibre, recently-qualified individual placed into business to work on innovation projects under guidance of relevant knowledge base academic. • Exchanges knowledge; spreads technical and business skills • Brings new expertise and real benefits to companies • Provides business experience for graduates • Stimulates business-focused education and research in institutions

  13. Using government procurement to drive innovation. Enables public sector organisations to procure new technologies faster and with managed risk. Provides paid contracts for the critical stage of product development Relaunched 2009 18 Government Departments engaged Major interest from other public sector bodies 42 competitions 1630 applications 519 contracts (>60% new companies) Innovation driven by procurement SBRI

  14. Innovation in Space - Background Jan 2009 – Technology Strategy Board becomes a partner of the British National Space Centre (BNSC) April 2009 – Responsibility for funding of UK civil telecoms and navigation space activities transferred from BNSC to Technology Strategy Board April 2011 – UK Space Agency fully operational, leading UK Space policy, Technology Strategy Board continues to drive innovation in Space...

  15. Implementing the Space Innovation and Growth Strategy • Global market forecast to be worth £400 billion by 2030 • Strategy to capture 10% of market and create over 100,000 jobs in the UK • ‘applications and services using Space data will be one of the most important elements for delivering growth’

  16. Working with the UK Space Agency Delivery partner of the UK Space Agency for telecommunications and navigation programmes Promoting business opportunities for the UK Space industry across all Technology Strategy Board activity areas Supporting innovation in space technology and applications that leads to new commercial exploitation opportunities

  17. Delivering European Space Agency programmes Advanced Research in Telecommunications Systems (ARTES) Development, qualification and demonstration of products and applications Integrated Applications Promotion Development of operational services through the combination of different space systems GNSS Evolution Technology development for future satellite navigation systems Technology Transfer Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTP’s) for companies in the ESA Business Incubator at Harwell

  18. Technology Strategy Board UK Space activity - supporting growth Technology Demonstration Overcoming a barrier to market Knowledge Exchange Knowledge Transfer Networks – Space Special Interest Group Technology Roadmap process Open Innovation ISIC Hub and Spokes Connecting with SMEs Collaborative R & D competitions Digital, Energy, Transport, Agriculture, Low Carbon etc. Space Feasibility Studies

  19. CubeSat Challenge - UKube1 With STFC and Astrium Core funding for platform (ClydeSpace) and support for payload competition Encourage payload projects to apply for a KTP TechDemoSat With SEEDA and ISIC Technology demonstration

  20. TechDemoSat – removing a barrier to market SSTL project to create a low cost ‘in orbit test bed’ to demonstrate innovative UK technology Technology Strategy Board and SEEDA providing grant for platform and payload integration Payloads fully funded by industry and academia Kicked off Phase 1 (design and payload selection) in October 2010 Launch options under review with UK Space Agency Phase 2 (build and integration) will commence when launch plan established 18 months from kick off to launch

  21. Space Knowledge Transfer Network Special Interest Group A pan-KTN community of space capabilities Materials, Electronics, Sensors & Photonics, Digital Communications, Digital Systems, Aerospace & Defence, Transport A neutral facilitator for the delivery of national technology roadmaps To underpin a National Space Technology Strategy

  22. Telecommunications Telecommunications dominates the UK Space industry in terms of earnings, exports and employment for both upstream manufacturing and downstream services/applications Key market opportunities Satellite Broadband Broadcast Transport Security Environment

  23. Sensing Opportunities Space, planetary and EO science Monitoring the planet – environment and climate Commercial EO applications Security and Defence UK Capabilities Detectors (visible, IR and microwave) Optical and microwave Active and passive systems Planetary in-situ

  24. Position, Navigation & Timing Market Opportunities Key Technology Drivers are short term (Galileo, integrated GNSS) Driven by external (non-space) developments and legislation UK Capabilities Well positioned for integration and exploitation Security (encryption, protection, interference detection) GNSS test bed “elements” to provide technology in new application areas (Indoor + Transport) 24

  25. Robotics & Exploration Scope includes: Unmanned planetary platforms Penetrators In-situ resources Human exploration UK Capabilities Rover Design & Build Autonomy/Robotics Control Resilient Systems Human Factors Novel Power Planetary Protection

  26. Access to Space Scope includes: Launch vehicles Space tourism Generic satellite platforms Orbital transfer modules Opportunities Space, planetary and EO science Monitoring the planet Commercial EO applications Security and Defence

  27. Open Innovation – the role of ISIC • brings together businesses, international space agencies, research and technical facilities, government organisations and education facilities • facilitates new collaborations and partnerships • a seedbed for innovation and enterprise • facilitates the commercialisation of innovative research

  28. What is a technology & innovation centre • Business-focused centre that makes world-leading technical capability available to businesses to solve their technical challenges. Provides access to world-leading technical expertise, infrastructure, skills and equipment • Access to world-leading technology & expertise • Reach into the knowledge base for world-class science • Capability to undertake collaborative R&D projects with business • Capability to undertake contract research for business • Strongly business focused with a professional delivery ethos • Create a critical mass of activity • Skills development at all levels
