("Versarien", the "Company" or the "Group")
2-DTech awarded grant from Advanced Propulsion Centre
Versarien plc (AIM: VRS), the advanced materials engineering group, is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, 2-DTech Limited ("2-DTech") has been awarded a grant of up to GBP104k from the Advanced Propulsion Centre ("APC"). The award is part of APC's GBP1 million-plus initiative to support 14 micro, small and medium-sized companies that are developing innovative low-carbon technologies to significantly reduce vehicle emissions.
This grant funding comes as part of a phased 18-month process through the APC's successful Technology Developer Accelerator Programme (TDAP), which is one of APC's funding streams that supports smaller organisations on their journey from concept to a viable commercial product. In addition to the financial backing, 2-DTech will also benefit from additional support to help identify routes to market, protect intellectual property and validate its technology.
Neill Ricketts, Chief Executive of Versarien commented:
"TDAP has selected what it sees as the most exciting SME technological innovators in the UK, supporting the efforts of those most capable of delivering future solutions for zero emission vehicles. Its support is a great endorsement of 2-DTech and the work it is doing to develop graphene-enhanced lightweight materials and powertrain structures."
TDAP Manager from the Advanced Propulsion Centre, Josh Denne said: "We are delighted to be working with 2-DTech as part of our Technology Developer Accelerator Programme (TDAP). At the APC we are committed to working with micro, small and medium organisations developing innovative low-carbon technologies. Companies such as 2-DTech play a crucial role in the automotive industry's net zero carbon future. By supporting them at the beginning of their journey we hope to ensure their innovative technology becomes commercially viable."

About the Advanced Propulsion Centre:
The Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC) accelerates the industrialisation of technologies which will help to realise net-zero emission vehicles. It is at the heart of the UK government's commitment to end the country's contribution to global warming by 2050.
Since its foundation in 2013, APC has funded over 110 low-carbon projects, involving more than 290 partners. The technologies developed in these projects are projected to save over 179 million tonnes of CO2, the equivalent of removing the lifetime emissions from 6.5 million cars.
APC projects have helped generate economic benefits too. Companies involved have seen turnover increases of 14-17%, with new jobs increasing by 8-10%. Together these have generated a 17% Gross Value Added uplift.
With its deep sector expertise and cutting-edge knowledge of new propulsion technologies, APC's role in building and advising project consortia helps projects start more quickly and deliver more value. In the longer term, its work to drive innovation and encourage collaboration is building the foundations for a successful UK industry.
