Details of grant awarded to VI Group (now Vero Software) for development of modelling technologies

Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform did not have the information requested.

Dear Sir or Madam,

In the "Annual Report & Accounts 2004" of "VI Group Ltd" (released 2005-01-23) it is reported on page 4 that: [1]

"The Department of Trade & Industry awarded a grant of £81,000 for the development of modelling technologies particularly applicable to areas of mould design that are not easily accessible to users of current precise modelling techniques. It is anticipated that this project will come to fruition in late 2006."

I have been unable to locate any further references to this from either the company (now known as "Vero Software Ltd") or the Department for Business and Enterprise website.

Please can you send me all details you can about this grant in terms of its application and any reports done afterwards.

Thank you,

Francis

Dear Phillips Ann (Mrs A) IWS,

Thank you for your response, and for kindly including the South West RDA's FOI email address.

I have filed a new request with the South West RDA [1], so you do not need to take this matter further at this stage.

Yours sincerely,
