An icon in the shape of a person's head and shoulders. It often indicates a user profile.Innovation is driven by three things: people, their ideas, and collaboration. That's the opinion of the professor Mike Short, chief scientific advisor at the UK's Department for Business and Trade . And according to the UN Global Compact 2022, achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals doesn't just need accumulative innovation but"breakthrough innovation.".
"If we don't innovate, we can't improve the world. How do we engineer and innovate for a better world?" Short said."Space observation is vital for our planet — the UK invests in the European Space Agency and at the Space Cluster at Harwell, a significant science and innovation park." Jo Hawley, deputy director for aerospace, space and automotive at DBT, reported that the UK space sector spent £836 million on R&D in 2021. This investment, Hawley said, supports the UK"to lead pioneering scientific discoveries, inspire the nation and assert the UK's leadership as a science superpower.
In 2022, Japan's leading IT provider Fujitsu announced an initial £22 million investment in its UK Centre for Cognitive and Advanced Technologies. Tim Kay, director for science and technology at DBT, said:"We were delighted by Fujitsu's commitment to the center, which focuses on emerging tech including quantum computing. Fujitsu is one of many companies to realize their innovation strategies by harnessing the UK's thriving research ecosystem.
