ONE | Innovate UK ICURe Discover Programme

Are you a University of Aberdeen or Robert Gordon University academic, post-doc, research student or technician with an idea that could be commercialised?

ICURe is a best-in-class market discovery programme delivered in partnership with Opportunity North East, The University of Aberdeen, Robert Gordon University, Innovate UK, and Scottish Enterprise.

It gives research teams the skills, tools, and insights to:

• Understand market demand for their innovation
• Build customer discovery skills
• Explore commercial routes and next steps

Past participants have reported that having eight weeks of support and time for customer discovery significantly transformed their perspective on their innovation.

Applications are opening soon for 2026. For more information join the ICURe discover information session on Thursday 18th September or please email Imke Mulder, Programme Manager.
