NCC

About us

NCC is a world-leading innovation organisation that turns cutting-edge research and technology into industrial impact.

We bridge the gap between academia and industry, helping companies of every size of capitalise on cutting-edge innovations to deliver more. We do this at every stage of their journey and across the entire product lifecycle, from the earliest concept to end-of-life.

Part of the High Value Manufacturing Catapult and the University of Bristol, we have evolved from our origins as the National Centre of Excellence in composite technology. We provide a gateway to world-class expertise, advanced facilities, and industrial collaboration. A not-for-profit organisation, we leverage these assets to complement our customers’ capabilities, helping them to develop their people, to grow, compete, and succeed through technology and product leadership. In addition to working with industrial partners, we help create the conditions that enable UK innovators and industry to thrive
