Description

This is an Official Development Assistance (ODA) funded UKaid programme from the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC). The Prime Minister established the UK Vaccine Network (UKVN) in June 2015 to ensure that the UK was at the forefront of the global fight against future disease outbreaks. It is an Official Development Assistance (ODA)-funded programme which makes targeted investments to support the development of new vaccines and vaccine technologies for emerging infectious disease threats in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), focusing on areas of market failure. The UKVN identified a range of human diseases with epidemic potential in LMICs for which the development of vaccines is a priority. The UK Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) engaged Innovate UK to run a Small Business Research Initiative (SBRI), ODA-funded competition. The competition aimed to invest in vaccines and vaccine technologies to address the priority disease families (including Disease X - a pandemic pathogen that has not yet been characterised) identified by the UKVN. Proposals could address any part of the pre-clinical, non-clinical, manufacturing, or clinical pathway, within a one-year time frame, making technology ready to be progressed further along the developmental pathway. The projects built on work from previous Innovate competitions, including: Innovate Clinical Vaccine Development Competition 2018-2021, Innovate Preclinical Vaccine Development Competition 2017-2021 and the Innovate Vaccine Development Competition to develop research across vaccine development.
