New technologies, major programmes, collaborative R&D and market-development initiatives frequently require businesses, research organisations, funding bodies and specialist partners to work together around a common objective.

Supporting communication, workshops and industry engagement where programmes require wider market input or consensus.Fluency has existing experience of industry roadmap development involving workshops, surveys and stakeholder engagement, including work with Composites UK on an industry-wide construction roadmap.
