Seeking innovative physical and active protection systems that can counter IEDs, mines, top attack weapons and small arms.

The MOD’s Center for Defence Enterprise (CDE) is seeking innovative applications which: • Minimise surrounding damage whilst breaching thick adobe walls. • Improve capability to see into compounds and into buildings. • Maximise ability to pre-empt and detect the origin of direct fire (e.g. rifle or rocket propelled grenade).

Protecting MoD systems from sophisticated threats is an increasing challenge in a networked world. This Centre for Defence Enterprise (CDE) SBRI competition focuses upon novel approaches to Cyber Defence with particular emphasis on the challenges of: Enhanced Situational Awareness, Advanced Intruder Detection, Decision Support for Cyber Defence, and Co-operative working for Cyber Defence.

Seeking innovative approaches to detect and counter both static and mobile underwater targets.

The NHS South Central Challenge is looking to all sectors to bring new technologies and new practice to bear on the achievement of the ambitious Shaping the Future (QIPP) target of a 20% reduction in admissions to hospital within the next 2 years.

Research and development which enhances capability to locate and defeat Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), whilst minimising the burden on military personnel.

The Technology Strategy Board and Defra are launching a £1.2m SBRI initiative to fund development work on ultra-efficient lighting (UEL) for the domestic environment.

This CDE call is focuses on quality of survival, battlefield analgesia and medical force protection.

Wouldn’t it be great if there was a new, easy to use/re-use mechanism for moving patients with a fractured neck of femur which would self regulate/stabilise whilst the patient was in transit (help protect the patient from further injury to an already painful complaint).

Wouldn't it be great if there were suitable non invasive technologies (or minimally invasive technologies) to replace the current invasive testing methods and which could be carried out at the bedside and offer multiple testing capability delivered via the same platform.

Seeking innovative aproaches to physical protection systems that protect against IEDs, mines, rocket attacks and other threats in current and possible future operations.

Personal protection (including body armour and helmets) is a major contributing factor to the load carried by our troops and this call will seek novel lightweight solutions whilst maintaining a high level of physical protection.

This CDE call focuses on two specific areas of treatment research related to amputation research and similar complex traumas.

Seeking innovative approaches to understand, characterise, detect and influence intent in crowded places with a view to reducing the risk of terrorist attacks.
