Delivery Notes

Anglia Ruskin is looking to procure a full-service marketing agency to create a communications strategy, a brand, marketing material and a website for the KEEP+ project. In particular:

 A communications strategy that includes key messages and guidance on tone of voice  A KEEP+ brand, with a look and feel guide, which includes branding guidelines which both internal and external stakeholders can work with. It will need to include fonts and logos. (KEEP+ branding guidelines will need to adhere to ERDF publicity guidelines)  Style templates for print and digital content (e.g. leaflets, banners, exhibition stands, e-newsletters, conference packs, case study templates, social media, blog, event marketing)  A designed brochure (8-12 pages)  Website with: o client logins and password protected areas o events and networking area o online applications functionality o blog functionality

To support businesses that engage with us KEEP+ will offer 5 different services / interventions:

1. Knowledge Exchange and Embed Partnerships (KEEPs). These partnerships place a specifically-recruited graduate into an SME. (The Knowledge Base employs the graduate, not the SME). The SME and graduate also benefit from academic support for half a day per week. We expect these projects to last around 12 months. 2. Research and Innovation Collaborations (R&ICs). Research and development support from an academic/research/technical team from the Knowledge Base* (e.g. university) into the business to develop a new product/service. We expect these projects to last around six to 18 months. 3. Capital Grants. These grants are only available to companies that also have a KEEP or R&IC and are designed to enable the SME to purchase equipment needed to develop a new product/service that is linked to a KEEP or R&IC project. 4. Innovation Internships. These internships enable a graduate intern from the Knowledge Base (KB) to assist the development of a new product/service. 5. Innovation Networks. We will run 6 Innovation Network events, which will bring people together and encourage them to collaborate and capitalise on market opportunities created by these societal challenges. These networks will enable SMEs to network with larger corporates, Knowledge Bases and local authorities to find collaborative partnerships that can work together to solve a problem.
