Vince Cable unveils £67m fund to back UK inventors

The Guardian reports:

Vince Cable is announcing £67m of funding to support British inventors who want to turn their ideas into commercial products.

The business secretary is pledging £50m to seven new areas of technology where the government thinks Britain could take a leading role, such as the 3D printing of human organs.

The government will also unveil £17m of funding for up to 210 industrial PhDs, that it hopes will forge closer ties between business and academia.

Excellent.
