Multiply Technology Ltd Awarded Cranfield University – Santander Grant

Multiply Technology Ltd is proud to announce that it has been awarded a Cranfield University – Santander Grant in recognition of their pioneering work into AI-enabled decision-making to explore and exploit new commercial applications for existing technologies.

The funding supports the industrial application of Multiply CEO’s, Natasha Allden’s, cutting-edge PhD research with Cranfield University into decision-making for new commercial applications. While many businesses recognise the value of new commercial applications through outbound transfer, few actively pursue it, and even fewer have access to practical guidance on how to do it well.

The insights from the research inform the design of Multiply’s AI-enabled decision-making platform, enabling technology and engineering firms to confidently and rapidly identify, qualify and pursue new commercial applications for their existing technologies.

“I’m absolutely delighted to receive the Cranfield University-Santander Grant,” said Natasha Allden, CEO of Multiply Technology Ltd. “It’s a terrific opportunity to practically apply research that will shape how businesses, academia, and government unlock the full potential of existing technologies.”
