As part of its continuing focus on research and industrial engagement, NSRI has launched a call for applicants to its Matchmaker service.

The NSRI Matchmaker service is an online database launched to pair organizations and companies with universities and research institutions in order to solve industrial challenges and creating opportunities in the wider 'Blue Economy'; cross-industries: oil & gas, renewables, defense and aquaculture. Hailed as "a hub for supply chain promotion and industry research & testing", this valuable service helps take ideas all the way from the proof of concept stage right through development, sales and into widespread adoption.
