Publisher note: The University’s requirements since publishing in November 2022 have substantially changed focus, moving the support required in relation to public affairs away from supporting the University’s agenda to a developing strategic theme of research, knowledge exchange and civic partnership. As a result, the University has deemed a new technical specification will be required to better reflect the University’s requirements. We two recent key appointments in the research arena at NTU and a further appointment in relation to our MTIF (Medical Technologies Innovation Facility), the University shall be looking to re-tender for this new requirement in October 2023.
