This workshop, the fourth of our Innovation Academy series, presents the ‘when’, ‘why’, and ‘how’ you may wish to engage with industry to develop your research, and the support in place at King’s to help you navigate this. Members of the Industry Research Partnerships team will explore the different benefits and challenges of working with industry across King's faculties and will share examples of how engagement (e.g. through funding, access to unique resources, collaboration with industry researchers), has helped researchers develop wider impact for their research.

The workshop will be delivered by members of the Industry Research Partnership Office and Translational Research Office (named below) who have a wealth of experience supporting the King's research community as part of the King's Innovation Catalyst (KIC).

King's Innovation Catalyst events are open to King's researchers, postgraduate students and professional services colleagues across all faculties and institutes.
