grant Background
About the Funding Agency
UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) is the national funding agency investing in science and research in the UK.
Operating across the whole of the UK and with a combined budget of more than £6 billion, UK Research and Innovation is bringing together the seven Research Councils, Innovate UK and a new organisation, Research England.
UK Research and Innovation will be an independent organisation and a strong voice for research and innovation, both to government and internationally, and will be supported and challenged by an independent chair and board. We intend to be an outstanding organisation that ensures the UK maintains its world-leading position in research and innovation. We will do this by creating the best environment for research and innovation to flourish.

Japan
Japan has world-class infrastructure in transportation (high-speed rail, ports, airports), energy systems and digital connectivity that support its advanced, diversified economy. Current investment priorities include resilient infrastructure upgrades, smart urban development and climate-aligned technologies such as hydrogen and renewable energy systems. Public and private sector coordination, strong regulatory institutions and robust financing markets underlie infrastructure delivery, even as demographic change and fiscal sustainability shape long-term investment strategy. Challenges include adapting infrastructure for ageing populations, decarbonising energy systems and integrating regional technological platforms within global networks.
