Knowledge Transfer Networks
A Knowledge Transfer Network (KTN) is a group of individuals that have a shared interest in an area of emerging technology. It provides an easy means of acquiring and sharing knowledge, and hence, participating in shaping the future of a strategically important technology in the UK.
KTNs have been set up and are funded by government, industry and academia. They bring together diverse organisations and provide activities and initiatives that promote the exchange of knowledge and the stimulation of innovation in these communities. There are currently 25 KTNs with a membership of around 45,000. The newest KTNs are in Digital Communications and Creative Industries and a KTN in Financial Services is planned.
