UKTIN

UKTIN was the innovation network for the UK telecoms sector, bringing together industry, academia, and government stakeholders to catalyse telecoms R&D talent in investment, cooperation and commercialisation.
Formed in 2022, it was delivered by a consortium of four partners that drew on distinct strengths in a collaborative approach: Digital Catapult, Cambridge Wireless, University of Bristol, and WM5G. The programme came to a close in March 2026.

With over 6,500 members, UKTIN represented both sides of the ecosystem - supply and demand - convened, supported and championed through one network, focused on facilitating, enabling and turbo-charging collaboration. It was designed to help all involved in the ecosystem to thrive and capitalise on emerging opportunities.
