Our support offer, from application to product commercialisation
Our offering and how we support you
Access to professional designers and experts
We have a dedicated team of professional designers and industry experts within our universities that can assist in your project.
Industry leading facilities
Working with IBbD will give you access to industry leading facilities as well as design and project management expertise
Access to our networks
Even after your product has been developed we will network you with our contacts to ensure you have the best possible chances of commercialisation. Your success is our success.



The support from our team could change your project
IBbD’s team of designers work closely with you to understand your new product development requirements, how we can embed design thinking into your organisation, help you to develop a working prototype and both network and signpost you to additional business support to help your business grow.

Intellectual property, IBbD and you
Intellectual property can be a mine field but IBbD hopes to take some of the stress out of this. Any background IP brought by either the university or our partner is theirs to keep. Any new IP generated through the course of the IBbD design intervention will be the property of IBbD's until the repayable advance is returned to IBbD. At this point all IP will be transferred to the partner organisation.
The success stories from people we have worked with
We love to see our partners succeeding from the support we have been able to provide. The collaboration and support throughout the whole IBbD process is key to aiding in the successful commercialisation of the design innovations. Take a look at some of our success stories here.

The European languages are members of the same family. Their separate existence is a myth. For science, music, sport, etc, Europe uses the same vocabulary.
