Cross University Research Event: Modern Industrial Strategy

CURE brings together leading researchers from across the University to present their findings in three-minute, TED-style talks. Each event is themed around a particular topic and you’ll come away inspired, knowing you are part of this brilliant research community. 

With IS‑8 in mind, this CURE will focus on Modern Industrial Strategy, bringing together expertise from across our faculties to explore how their research is shaping the industries of tomorrow. We are also delighted to welcome guest speaker Phil Ward, Director of Eastern Arc, who will deliver a three-minute talk on IS‑8.

These fast-paced events are designed to inspire and highlight the breadth of innovation happening across the University. You’ll leave with fresh insights, and perhaps even the beginnings of new research collaborations with like‑minded colleagues.

Book to attend this event and see what it’s all about for yourself!

Presentations will be followed by networking and refreshments (available for those attending in person only) and will provide a fantastic opportunity for attendees to come together, share ideas and develop new research collaborations.
