It is working with INNOVX, a multi-sectorial company affiliated to University Mohammed VI Polytechnic (UM6P) and committed to ‘Pioneering the Next industries.’ 

Already partners, the duo are strengthening their collaboration by creating a new venture in Morocco dedicated to developing sustainable solutions based on innovative technologies.

The initiative will support OCP’s ambitious Green Ammonia programme targeting the annual production of three million tons of green ammonia mainly dedicated to the production of sustainable plant nutrition solutions by 2032. 

The collaboration will also provide technology development and scale-up to client companies for accelerating the Green Energy transition. The partnership includes the establishment of a TTP branch in Morocco, backed by UM6P facilities and community.

Sam Hyde, CEO of TTP said: “This move not only accelerates the development of sustainable energy technologies in the drive towards net zero but also establishes a technology hub for international collaboration. It will create local career opportunities and build a world-class industrial research and technology commercialisation ecosystem.”

INNOVX operates in strategic sectors essential to food sovereignty, energy, and digital transition – such as Agriculture, Social Innovation, Energy, Chemicals, and Digital.

TTP has also forged another significant alliance in the technology sector by joining forces with semiconductor focused accelerator SiliconCatalyst.UK to help fast-track the UK’s most exciting new chip companies’ journeys to market.

TTP will work with companies at ChipStart UK, a UK government funded semiconductor startup incubator managed and delivered by SiliconCatalyst.UK.

By offering the ChipStart UK cohort their mentorship and expertise in bringing new products to market, the companies will benefit from TTP’s multi-decade experience of integrating novel semiconductor devices into difficult real-world use-cases.

The two-year ChipStart UK programme includes 11 companies that are designing chips for use in a wide range of sectors, from brain implants to online security, quantum computing to efficient processors for the training of AI models. Cambridge duo Blueshift Memory and Wave Photonics are on the ChipStart programme. 

SiliconCatalyst.UK will provide bespoke chip design tools, commercial expertise and access to a network of specialist mentors and technology experts such as TTP. 

TTP has a strong heritage in silicon, including key roles in the development of digital mobile and satellite phones. A more recent focus has been on the development of technologies relating to Edge AI processing and their integration into systems in areas such UAV detect and avoid and autonomous agricultural robotics.
