INVITATION ONLY
This interactive session offers a valuable opportunity to hear directly from senior leaders across UKRI, EPSRC and Innovate UK about their strategic priorities, the evolving funding landscape, and future direction for UK research and innovation.
The town hall is designed to be interactive. This is an opportunity for the engineering communities who will be directly impacted by changes to the UKRI funding structure to ask questions about funding strategy, priorities, and the interface between research, innovation and industry. Attendees will be able to submit questions for consideration in advance as well as live during the session.
Joining details will be shared ahead of the event, along with instructions for submitting questions in advance.
