AEA links with Cambridge
15 Jan 2000
AEA Technology has formed an alliance with Cambridge University to exploit research at the university. Part of the engineering department, the Advanced Technology Centre is a five-year scheme which will cost AEA around £100000 per year.
According to AEA, the Centre will `add to the flow of new ideas already being generated by AEA Technology staff.' As the company intends to share the profits arising from these products with the university, it will also help recoup the research costs.
