Knowledge Exchange Follow-on Fund

The Knowledge Exchange Follow-on Fund is designed to support activities carried out after knowledge exchange events, that aim to maximise impact and enhance the output of the original event. The fund supports activities such as completing priority tasks, follow-up meetings, site visits, and other actions that seek to promote further collaboration or enable implementation of event outputs. To be eligible to apply for this support, the original event should have been associated with the ICMS or V-KEMS. The fund provides support for travel and subsistence, accommodation, or academic time, with up to £3,000 available per application. Successful applicants are required to submit a summary report within one month of the activity taking place and are expected to keep ICMS updated on any further activities, outputs or impact generated by this support. At least one of the applicants should be eligible to hold an EPSRC grant. The ICMS aims to communicate a decision within two weeks of receiving a proposal.
