KITE was formed in 2006 to bring together the work of a number of groupings from the Business School and Geography, all of which were concerned with the management of innovation and creativity, policy and enterprise. Our focus is the way in way in which emerging technology trends are interacting with new businesses, management and policy models. You can get a flavour of what we are about from our current projects and our publications.
Over the next few years we will be developing this research agenda, assisted by our Advisory Board, International Scientific Panel and engagement with Project Partners. A key set of relationships for us will be the Newcastle Science City, but we are also heavily embedded in a set of international networks and linkages and our research will continue to take a strongly international orientation.
If you would like to get in touch with us, either because you are looking for research solutions, research partners or because you would like to study with us we would be delighted to talk with you.
