The British Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS)
is to invest up to £20 million in collaborative R&D projects and
feasibility studies (delivered by Innovate UK on behalf of BIS) to
stimulate developments in autonomous vehicles and connected transport
systems.
Building on the government's ‘Introducing driverless cars to UK roads'
collaborative research initiative, this competition aims to encourage
development of connected and autonomous vehicles, focusing on three
themes – connectivity, autonomy and customer interaction – along with
catalysing new business models.
The competition opens for both types of project application on 20 July 2015. The deadline for applications is at noon on 30 September 2015. There will be a briefing in London for potential applicants on 4 August 2015.
