Collaborating with business and Industry

The Royal Veterinary College actively collaborates with business and industry to progress science and develop new technologies. This ensures that our world-class scientific and clinical knowledge and expertise is used to improve the lives of humans and animals.

The business team works closely with the College’s scientists and clinicians to identify, protect, develop and commercialise intellectual property, to strengthen research collaboration and the development of new technologies.
