Biography
Following an initial academic career as a life scientist in a Russell Group University during the 1970s, Martin was invited to establish and lead an international group, supporting global research initiatives and translating research to worldwide markets, before establishing his own research based SME in the mid 1980s. An established and impressive research funding success rate increased requests for help and support from other researchers, SMEs and academia/industry in general, leading to the formation of GrantCraft (now one arm of WRG Europe Ltd) in the early 1990s. Since then Martin has been highly successful in facilitating, supporting and implementing effective research engagement across the UK research councils and trusts as well as in European, and other, research projects from BRITE-EURAM and ESPRIT initially to H2020 to-date.
