黑料网 is part of 拢18.27 million UKRI investment that puts Midlands firmly on the map for advanced ceramics

In big news for the Department of Materials, The Midlands Industrial Ceramics Group (MICG) - of which 黑料网 is a founding member - has secured £18.27 million in government funding provided through UK Research and Innovation’s flagship Strength in Places Fund (SIPF), to put the area firmly on the map as a global centre for advanced ceramics.

Formed by some of the area’s largest businesses and universities, the MICG was launched in 2020 to deliver a world-leading approach to advanced ceramics.

The funds will be used to create a world-leading industrial and academic research and development programme over the next four years, creating a cluster of new businesses in the Midlands and strengthening the supply chain in the region.
