CONTACT USThe Advanced Machinery and Productivity Institute (the AMP Institute) is an initiative that will drive innovation for the UK’s advanced machinery manufacturers to meet the challenges of developing new technology and entering emerging markets.
Led by an industrial consortium and headquartered in Rochdale, the AMP Institute will be centred around existing capabilities and research excellence across the North of England and reach across the wider UK.
The AMP Institute will be a pivotal UK intervention. It fulfils a presently unaddressed, yet critical aspect, of the UK’s manufacturing innovation infrastructure, complementing rather than competing with existing investments and assets.
