Oversee restructuring and product portfolio rationalization of UK Technical and Research and Development Operations during a time of massive company world wide restructuring. First point of contact for all regulatory submissions.David Lapham is an influential communicator and connector who is experienced in distilling technical and commercial information from a diverse range of sources into innovative concepts, market insights and business processes; and can find credible sources of verified and peer reviewed data to support your current scientific or business projects. Known as “The Oracle” to those that have worked with him!Also described by colleagues as a “sharp strategic thinker, a self-starter and relationship builder” who is likeable, credible and engaging with a “can do, will do” attitude to life. Someone who has a strong values orientation, is excellent with people and who is capable of getting under the bonnet to understand businesses and their potential.When under pressure to deliver companies tend to combine two or more sets of data to generate plausibility which when looped with a hypothetical construct gives you the result you are looking for! This subsequently directs research in completely the wrong direction, through joining data in a way more than expected randomly.A “disruptive brutal disconnect” is the only way forward at this point; David Lapham is particularly good at identifying and moving businesses through this phase.

As grant funding specialists GHA provide a wide range of services to assist clients in accessing grant funding for innovative projects. My role as a specialist was to work with the client throughout the entire funding process providing practical support and guidance by bringing extensive experience to the development of the client funding proposal. The range of funding can viewed on the European Cordis website; the portal for all European Funding. It is likely that a company will have an outline concept that they would like to progress if funding was available. To take these concepts forward they need to ensure that they have been fully defined into projects that will meet the criteria and be attractive to the funding authority. The process for developing, submitting and implementing projects can be envisaged as follows: 1) Project Concept: Risk and Opportunity Management including Regulatory2) Consortium Building3)Outline Proposal Preparation4) Budget Preparation5) Final Proposal Preparation6) Proposal Submission7) Proposal Evaluation and contract negotiation with funding authority8) Management of key deadlines for client to ensure continued funding of project I am sure that most clients loose the will to live if they have to work through the above themselves.” In fitting with your company profile and to answer your question my plan would be to offer my skills in the above areas to your business need for funding particularly but not limited to Horizon 2020 and to demystify the organizations and complex institutions that are the EU funding programmes and engage with and encourage you the client to participate and influence EU policy”;particularly in the light of "Brexit"

If you have an existing process that is not delivering the required output or quality or if you need to drive down the cost or reduce your environmental impact then PERA Technology can help you by de-risking the innovation process. New Product development is expensive; PERA Technology’s public funding route through a variety of instruments (Horizon 2020, TSB/ Smart etc.) means that the client can pay as little as 5% of the total project costs. Unlike when raising funds through banks, venture capitalists and angel financiers taking the PERA Technology funding route means that the client retains complete control of the developed innovation without having to share equity or having to dilute IP .My role within PERA was to roll out this product to SME’s country wide but focusing particularly on the South through personal visits and developing associate net works. Coordinated and reported using a bespoke Microsoft CRM system.
