Innovation loans briefing events open september 2019 slides to shareKTN
Innovate UK, the Knowledge Transfer Network and the Enterprise Europe Network hosted a briefing event for the second of two Open innovation loans competitions in the extension of the award-winning pilot programme, which is currently open for applications.
Innovate UK is extending its pilot programme of loan competitions. A total of £50 million has been committed to 70 borrowers in the initial pilot and a further £25 million is available for business innovation projects. This is the second competition in the pilot extension. Innovate UK is working to broaden the range of innovation finance support available to businesses, so they can access funding at all stages of innovation. Innovation loans are for UK small or medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that want to scale up and grow through innovation, developing new or improved products, processes or services. They can be used for late-stage research and development (R&D) projects, which have not yet reached the point of commercialisation.
Innovate UK is to offer up to £10 million in loans to SMEs for innovative late stage projects. The aim of this competition is to provide loans to help SMEs to undertake innovative projects with strong commercial potential across any sector or industry. Innovation loans will offer affordable, patient, flexible, repayable funding for later-stage research & development projects with a clear route to commercial success.
The deadline for applications in this competition is noon on 27th November 2019.
The purpose of the briefing event is to provide vital information to enable businesses to decide if an innovation loan is appropriate for them and, if so, to develop a clear and compelling application that shows that they have an innovative project and are suitable for a loan.

Professor Dave Bull, Director of Bristol Vision Institute, University of Bristol
Idea: The creative industries are nothing without science.
Advances in the creative industries are driven (and to a degree determined) by progress in the behavioural, engineering and science disciplines. Creative processes that interact with and understand the underpinning science are those that will make an impact.

Jonathan Chippindale (Holition), Jennifer Davies (Nabil Nayal), Prof Jane Harris (London College of Fashion), Lynda Petherick (Accenture UK) - Chair, Caroline Rush (British Fashion Council), Prof Stephen Russell (Uni of Leeds)
Like other areas of the creative industries the entire fashion ecosystem is in flux with multiple points of destabilisation. Rather than fear or deny this disruption the UK Fashion industry seems poised to embrace it. But to do so it needs to answer a range of challenges which spread across multiple research disciplines. We explore the nature of these challenges and how they are being met in a fast-moving global sub-sector of the creative industries.

10. “Immersive experiences are new forms of content, new narrative
mechanisms and a new language around production which spans the
Creative Industries…..
“The best technology will not produce the step change needed
without equal excellence in content production and understanding of
immersion as a narrative form.
“The UK must ensure it is the most highly skilled nation producing
content that exploits these technologies”
Sir Peter Bazalgette Independent Review of the Creative Industries
11.
12. Audience of the Future
To capture new global audiences and grow our leading market position
in creative content, products and services by adopting, exploiting and
developing immersive technologies.
Challenge Statement
*
13. • Immersive technologies (AR, VR, XR) are the most significant and
potentially disruptive technologies to impact the Creative Industries
since the web in the mid 90s
• They present both opportunities and threats to the UK’s current level
of global competitiveness as both IP creator and production centre
• Global commercial opportunity for UK Creative Industries is through
content/experiences enabled by immersive technology rather than
platform or hardware
Audience of the Future Rationale
14. That by 2025 UK is a global market leader in the creative immersive sector.
1. UK creates 10% of global creative immersive content
2. The UK Creative Industries sustains its above average growth.
3. The UK has a low barrier of entry for producing high-quality immersive content,
4. The UK has an increased skilled workforce to create immersive content.
5. Increased private investment in immersive technology and experiences
Programme Objectives
*
15.
16. • Audience of the Future is central to Creative Industries Sector Deal
• High expectations that AoTF will de-risk investment
• Identifying/ testing viable audience propositions & business models
• Innovation in production tools/reskilling workforce
• Industry engagement across the value chain
• Specialists in AR/VR/XR companies but also…
• Content studios, IP owners, creative technology companies, hardware
providers, platforms operators, investment community, distributors
Industry Context
17. Audience of the Future – £33m grant funding
• Ambitious, pre-commercial
content innovations using
global IP.
• New experiences that advance
the state of the art and test with
real audiences at scale.
• Large collaborations across the
supply chain to explore future
commercial models.
• Talent development and
experimental production
for the Screen Industries
• Delivered with Clusters

Audience of the Future – a £56m programme
19. 19
Demonstrator Programme: rationale
• That UK Creative Industries future success in Immersive economy will be
based on our strength in innovation in content, experience and business not
in technology
• That investment in AR/VR/MR/XR at scale is currently held back by lack of
clear audience propositions, forms and formats that could underpin
commercial models and unlock required investment
• The current market is largely pre-commercial, with much current work
innovation driven, small scale, promotional or ancillary rather than seeking
revenue generating opportunities from new audiences.
• Public investment in a series of large scale, pre-commercial, collaborative
experience demonstrators could stimulate content innovation, audience
testing and business modelling at scale, provide sectoral learning and
unlock investment.
20. • Up to £16m; Max Grant £4m
• 4 areas identified with industry as maximum opportunity
• Performance
• Moving Image
• Sport Entertainment
• Visitor Experience
• Looking for projects that can significantly advance creative,
technology and commercial state of the art across a whole sector
Demonstrator Programme: overview
35. 35
Demonstrator Programme: Objectives
• Innovation: we will support industry led consortia to develop NEW
audience experiences that show they can significantly advance the
current state of the art
• Insight: each large scale demonstrator must reach an audience of
>100,000 in order to learn lessons at scale
• Capacity building/knowledge sharing: each consortium should
have sufficient reach to advance knowledge across their sector and
a plan for how to do that*
36. 36
What do we mean?
• Significantly advance the current state of the art
• Creative proposition
• Audience Proposition
• Commercial Proposition
• Technical implementation
• Reach >100,000 users across the lifetime of the project
• One or more audience propositions or tests
• Gather audience data
• Derive commercial insight
• Use globally recognised IP
• To reach audience
• To address rights and IP issues
• To inform commercial models
37. 37
Ambition and Scale
“Each one of these demonstrators would be
the biggest creative VR project in the world at
the moment”
Jeremy Bailenson, Director Stanford VHI Lab
38. 38
Ambition and Scale
• This is a very ambitious programme
• but absolutely not just a VR one
• We are looking for gamechangers
• not just the next thing (a bit bigger)
• or the same thing (a lot bigger)
• or something that isn’t core to the future of the sector
• The scale of funding available is beyond people’s current
experience
• in thinking, in project scope, production, scale of experience, talent
• but we need to spend it wisely
39. 39
Consortia
• To meet the ambition we think you will need to engage the
whole value chain:
• Specialist XR companies but also, academic and industry R&D
teams, IP owners, rights holders, content and experience
producers, GFX, specialist technology and data providers,
Studios, talent, hardware, platform and distribution partners
• In a consortium with a vision to impact the sector not just
deliver a project for a single company or institution
40. Immersive Experiences: multisensory narrative or
interactive audience experiences mediated through
technologies including:
• virtual, mixed and augmented reality (VR, AR, MR)
• haptics
• advanced visualisation
• other sensory interfaces
Definitions
41. Sports Entertainment
• Experiences and formats that provide remote access to sporting events
across a range of platforms and generate significant revenues from this
remote audience in addition to spectators attending the events.
• We particularly encourage proposals
• That apply immersive technologies to new audience propositions in sports where
remote audiences are (or could) be significant drivers of value.
• Where events, rights positions and creative opportunities afford significant
opportunities to engage the public

Aprilia Racing partnered with Realmore, a business unit of Equent Media Group, to develop a software application to be used in an augmented reality wearable device called DAQRI Smart Helmet. The device will be used to visualize AR (augmented reality) content to help mechanics during the preparation and maintenance of racing bikes.With the new technology, Aprilia mechanics can visualize content related to motorcycle parameters and infographics that also respond to user input in real time. For example, the technicians can interact with models of pinout connectors and see the wiring capabilities by looking at each connector individually. This speeds up cable connection activity and limits the risk of error.Through a 3D hologram of the entire racing bike, the mechanics will then be able to see in real time the telemetric data of the temperature of water, oil, and tires at the point where they will be most useful. They will also be able to make a checklist of the wear on some parts of the bike and evaluate when to do the replacement.Moreover, the chief engineer can communicate remotely with the mechanics by displaying an overlay on the helmet screen to guide them with strategic information such as the type of tires to be used, amount of fuel to put in the tank or the lap number of the exit.Another great functionality is the DAQRI’s integrated thermal camera which allows you to scan the motorcycle and visualize the temperature of the oil and the cooling fluid or check for any anomalies.The technology will be put into practice during the San Marino MotoGP at the Misano World Circuit in Italy on September 8 -10, 2017.

Bespoke methodologies, designed to match the specific requirements of each individual client: no reliance on ‘off-the-shelf’ analysis
A unique ability to help the sports industry understand their audience, develop their market and solve challenging business problems
25 years ago, Rupert Murdoch used football as “a battering ram” to sell pay TV subscriptions
It’s safe to say that it worked out pretty well
But the battering ram is no longer an effective tool, a state of the art weapon in the armoury for the sports industry, certainly not in terms of reaching an audience, be it mass or otherwise
There’s one overarching reason for this…
…globalisation
This is thanks to technological advances that you will be very familiar with:
OTT platforms changing the way the sports audience consumes content
Social media creating a culture of sharing, collaboration and recommendation amongst fans
Fans demanding deeper, personalised, more engaging experiences
The upshot of this is that not only are NGBs, leagues, clubs, and their commercial partners increasingly have to address an audience with many different wants and needs
Like this picture – the same ideal man, but with local variants. How does a football club for example, market to a fan in china vs the UK, given that Chinese fans tend not to support a single team but follow three or four?
Even at a local UK level – the modern sports fan is a global citizen with access to content from all over the world.
As a result there are more and more demands on their attention. That could be from new sports, for example the extremely fast-growing MMA and e-sports offerings.
But more than that, sport is playing in a much bigger marketplace. It’s no longer just a case of football vs cricket vs rugby and so on, sport, as an entertainment medium is pitting itself against the likes of Facebook, Amazon and Netflix..
Here’s a quote that sums it up for me
It’s from Reed hastings, Chairman of Netflix
No-one should be under any illusuion about the magnitude of the task in connecting with audiences
So yes there are many state-of-the-art new technologies out there, but in my world, the strategy world in trying to deliver business growth, it’s not about these technologies per se, but when faced with something like this…
…state of the art is deciding what the fan journey is and which piece of amazing technology is appropriate at each stage.
How do we do this?
My state-of-the-art is a little less sexy than immersive technologies, but it is vital, and it’s about simplicity and finding the silver bullet for the target audience
Research: Qual and quant across a global panel
Media expertise to value rights and content
Strategic thinking to understand emerging trends and their potential impact
Data – to validate decisions and ensure a virtuous circle of innovation
Bags to the side / water?
Just notebooks and business cards …if you are qill colleagues - spread out ! This session has been designed to allow you to meet as many people as possible in a very short time.
You have 5 minutes per meeting in total, for each person to talk about there area of interest & expertise in the immersive space and why they are here today…
if you are looking for partners for an existing project idea
or interested in finding a project to partner on.
Keep it short and concise,
- you’ll hear the train whistle to indicate it’s time to swap over from doing the talking / listening and 3 to let you know its time to move ‘Stage left’ to your next meeting
Share your contact details so you can expand on the conversations after the event – or even in the Swan Bar later today.
Finally, as Andrew has covered this AM, successful demonstrators consortiums will contain a mix - businesses, cultural institutions, research base, IROs or third sector – which is what we have in this room…BUT not everyone you meet in the next hour will be a ‘perfect match’ but hopefully even if they are not a potential partner they will offer you insight into how other people are thinking about the opportunities presented by the demonstrator programme.
