➢ a Project Manager (1 FTE), Project Coordinator (1 FTE), LegalTech Engagement Officer (1 FTE), Research Funding Officer (0.8 FTE), Research Development Officer (0.4 FTE) and REIS Support Officer (0.4 FTE). A Project Administrator was also in post to February 2023; given the short period of delivery remaining a replacement was not appointed. The project team was supported by the two Co-Principal Investigators, and the Heads of the School of Law and Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences (the latter not supported by ERDF monies). 4.6 FTEs in total

2.18 As indicated, overall, in its final months of delivery the operation was supporting directly 21.2 FTEs, with additional inputs provided by other senior staff at the University.

Delivery of collaborative projects

2.19 The operation has developed and delivered collaborative projects with a variety of partners including private sector companies, third sector organisations, sector bodies, and other HEIs. For example, data from May 2023 indicate that the operation has worked on over 15 collaborative projects across both the Cyber Threats and LegalTech strands of activity with partners, including those that have sought and/or secured external funding. Each project is distinct and tailored to the specific issue / opportunity that it is seeking to address; there is no ‘standard’ activity delivered by the operation.

2.20 Reflecting this, and demonstrating the range of activity progressed, Figure 2-4 provides a selection of examples of collaborative projects involving members of the LILW team.
