QinetiQ We have a framework called the EIRB (External Investment Review Board)

This board meets on an ad hoc basis and at such meetings technology opportunities are presented by QinetiQ to Anglo Scientific. We typically have 6 to 9 months to evaluate such technology.

“QinetiQ is one of the world's leading defence technology and security companies. In today's world the challenges faced by governments to detect, identify and respond to both defence and homeland security threats requires the most advanced technical capabilities science can offer.

QinetiQ was founded from the world's first top flight national defence laboratory to transition to the private sector. It gives customers access to the output of 50 years of national investment at the forefront of technology. Today, the Group has grown to offer its global customer base technology rich services and solutions, from an expanding base of leading capabilities in both Europe and North America.

It operates at the leading edge of technology which enables it to give our civil customers access to solutions that are often beyond those readily available in commercial markets.”

A number of commercially viable opportunities are under evaluation during the course of the year.
