A delegation from Innovate UK’s Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTP) has paid a courtesy visit to the management of the University of Cape Coast (UCC).

The delegation, led by the Knowledge Transfer Adviser, John Clayton, was in UCC to familiarize themselves with the projects of researchers funded by the KTP in UCC.

Mr. Clayton said the delegation was also in Ghana to officially launch the Farmsense project and explore ways to transfer the knowledge and innovations developed during its implementation to the wider university community.

Receiving the delegation, the Pro Vice-Chancellor , Prof. Denis Aheto, welcomed the visitors and commended them for supporting researchers in UCC.

He said he was happy that two faculty members – Prof. Ernest Teye and Prof. Robert Sarpong Amoah – had their projects under the KTP.

He indicated that the Technology Transfer Office of the Directorate of Research, Innovation and Consultancy (DRIC) would be happy to collaborate with KTP so that researchers in UCC would undertake research projects that benefit society.

Prof. Aheto stated that he was optimistic that KTP would partner with other sectors in the University.
