An Extract From the Report
In summary, within Norwich Research Park (NRP) and the wide groups of businesses within Norfolk, there is a weather of expertise and facilities to assist the product and new application development of seaweed. We would highly recommend the use of local expertise and partner to collaborate at the early stage of the product development. When it reaches the validation and scale-up stage, external CRO and service providers with specific certifications would be recommended to be used to provide independent validation of the product properties and performance.
