Application areas

To help to focus our work, we have identified a number of application areas and key technology areas.

Application areas are broad fields where technological innovation has a major role to play and which represent major societal challenges or are associated with the challenge of maintaining a world-leading position.

Application areas currently include:

• Environmental sustainability.
• Energy generation and supply.
• Healthcare.
• Transport.
• Creative industries.
• High-value services.
• Built environment.
• High Value Services Interim Strategic Assessment 

In each of these areas we will identify challenges, establish priorities and develop strategies which specify the key interventions.
