What has the ATTRACT seed funding enabled you to do so far?

It has enabled us to produce a prototype device, understand the device requirements from industry, and have more advances in characterisation following industrial standards.

What challenges have you faced so far?

Difficulties to do more deep characterisation with scientific instruments due to the different configuration between research and industry.

Where does your ATTRACT journey go from here?

We have produced a prototype device and some preliminary results.

Sum up in two sentences the advantages of the ATTRACT Programme over other research funding schemes.

It is a very flexible programme in terms of finance, start and end dates, and strong financial support to industry to encourage their involvement.
