Two UK research commercialisation bodies, Praxis and Unico, have announced a new name, PraxisUnico, following their recent merger.
“We will build the new organisation around the needs of our members and customers under a common identity which will bring many positive changes and improvements to our services in the future.”
The two legally, financially and operationally merged on 1 October, forming a not-for-profit educational organisation supporting innovation and commercialisation of public sector and charity research.
Praxis made its name as the UK’s leading technology/knowledge transfer training provider, addressing the shortage of skilled knowledge and technology transfer personnel. Unico meanwhile was the industry body supporting technology transfer professionals.
