The minimum composition of a CONSORTIUM is ONE Malaysian Project Lead (MPL) AND ONE UK Project Lead (UKPL). There can only be two Leads (one each from Malaysia and the UK, country-specific eligibility criteria are listed above) but if it will add value to your consortium, you can invite Partners, from either Malaysia or UK, to join your consortium.
It is optional and there is no limit, but kindly be informed that the Leads are responsible for the deliverables of the entire project. Partners can participate and join a Consortium with various roles including IP provider/licensor, consultant, developmental research partner, etc. PlaTCOM Ventures and Innovate UK will only be working directly with Malaysian Project Lead (MPL) and UK Project Lead (UKPL) respectively.
