Create impact working on real-world challenges privately, or as part of your Imperial role. 

Impact, income and opportunities

Imperial’s expertise is sought after the world over, to answer the challenges of business, governments, and humanity in general. Plus our impressive facilities, with their highly-skilled technicians, are rarely found within industry.

Working on a commercial or consultancy basis is a great way to test your 'know-how' on real-world solutions and generate more opportunities - or to fund expensive facilities, by putting them to use when not employed in research or teaching. And this is where Imperial Consultants and Imperial Projects can help.

Whether you're new to commercial work, looking to 'hire-out' your facilities for the first time, or are an experienced hand - our teams can help you deliver successful projects and - create impact beyond academia.
