The Research & Innovation Zone

ETP is once again partnering with All-Energy to bring you the Research & Innovation Zone. Find out more about the exhibitors and speakers in the R&I Zone this year below.

What is the Research & Innovation Zone?

The Research & Innovation Zone at All-Energy, in partnership with ETP, is a dedicated space focused on energy related projects with a high level of academic and industry collaboration. The Zone celebrates the innovative ideas, products, and services that can be achieved when industry partners work with researchers at Scottish universities.

The Zone provides space for companies and universities to showcase their innovative projects, network with other like-minded organisations, and make connections for further projects, funding, and collaborations.
