Universities, research centres and academic teams create knowledge, specialist capability and ideas with value far beyond the institution. Pavilion helps identify where that capability can attract funding, answer a commercial need or form the basis of a productive collaboration.
Academic institutions already hold the subject expertise, research base and intellectual capability. The challenge is often outside the research itself: finding the organisations, programmes and opportunities prepared to fund it, commission it or work with it.
Pavilion's role is to help search that external landscape and make the connection between capability and opportunity clearer.
The route may be a formal funding programme, a commercial requirement or a collaboration that creates something neither party could deliver alone.
Identify calls, programmes and other funding opportunities relevant to an institution's research strengths, then examine fit, requirements and the evidence needed to decide whether an opportunity merits pursuit.
Look beyond conventional research funding to organisations with problems, projects or procurement requirements that could benefit from specialist academic research, evaluation or subject expertise.
Identify businesses, public bodies and other institutions whose objectives, resources or complementary expertise create the basis for a credible collaborative opportunity.

£195/hour · £780 half day · £1,450 full day (8 hours) ↗Pavilion does not need to tell an academic team what its research is. We need to understand enough about its capability to search intelligently for the external opportunities around it.
Pavilion understands the academic environment from the inside — not only research and teaching, but the practical work of building provision, finding funding and working across institutional and commercial boundaries.
Tell Pavilion what your institution knows, researches or can deliver. We can start with the opportunity landscape around it.
