Liverpool’s Sensor City has signed a £750k partnership deal with software firm, Altium.
The move means that SMEs will get access to specialist design software to help them rapidly prototype innovations and as a result reduce time to market.
“Working with a big international organisation like Altium is fantastic and will really benefit Sensor City’s internal offering, while also providing local SMEs with technologically advanced design solutions,” explained Alison Mitchell, executive director of Sensor City.
The deal will provide access to 100 software licences and support to companies based within the space.
“Altium Designer and Vault software are essential tools for electronic circuit prototyping and commercial product development. Being able to use this high-end software alongside our PCB fabrication facilities will allow us to design and fabricate complex electronics as a fully integrated service,” added John Kenny, head of engineering at Sensor City.
