The MRC Industry Collaboration Framework (ICF) governs collaborative research between academic and industry researchers on any MRC funding scheme. It establishes responsibilities, IP rights, financial contributions, and access to data, materials, and equipment. ICF is a framework overlay on MRC research schemes — it is not a standalone grant call.
