R2I Lab Impact Accelerator

R2I Lab Impact Accelerator

Maximise the impact of your knowledge exchange and research commercialisation programme by embedding experimentation and evaluation.

Are you developing or running a programme to support knowledge exchange and research commercialisation? Before you scale it, learn how to maximise its impact through experimentation and evaluation.

The Innovation Growth Lab is currently accepting applications for the R2I Lab Impact accelerator programme. This programme offers structured, hands-on support to help you develop a theory of change and success metrics for your programme, and then choose the right way to test it. You’ll learn how to evaluate using experimental logic, how to apply experimental methods and, where numbers are too small for a randomised experiment, which other methods you can use to build evidence on your programme.

This edition of the Impact Accelerator is part of IGL’s Research to Impact (R2I) Lab and is fully funded, supported by Coefficient Giving, so there is no cost to participating teams. The accelerator is open to KTOs, business engagement teams, corporate open innovation teams, accelerators and venture builders.

Rolling applications until Friday 30 October 2026.
