The Universities of Bristol and Bath are both ranked in the UK's top ten, and the University of the West of England is consistently rated as one of the Country's best new universities. Their focus on creating close links with each other and the commercial world has resulted in a regional centre of academic and business excellence.
Spark builds on this by creating a ‘next step’ location for companies ready to emerge from the Universities’ own incubator facilities, as well as a conduit through which new businesses can access the world-class facilities and knowledge within these institutions and the investment expertise and support of SWRDA.
