Providing an overview of the support available to enable researchers to collaborate and innovate effectively with industry partners

Core Technology Facility

In 2021 the NIHR Biomedical Research Centre in collaboration with Translation Manchester delivered a pilot series of webinars entitled The Innovator Training Scheme. These were designed to support researchers to explore and develop collaborative innovations and routes to commercialisation to exploit their research for the benefit of patients.The Innovator Training Scheme webinar series has now evolved into interactive e-learning training materials available to clinical and academic colleagues via the Lifelong Learning Platform. We aim to launch these training materials at this event while providing a refreshed overview of the support infrastructure available across the Greater Manchester research ecosystem to enable researchers to collaborate and innovate effectively with industry partners.Venue: Core Technology Facility, Grafton Street, Manchester, M13 9WUDate: 30 January 2024Time: 9:30 -12:30 with lunch/networking to followAim: To guide the audience through the supportive infrastructure available across the Greater Manchester research ecosystem to enable researchers to collaborate and innovate effectively with industry partnersObjectives:<ul><li>Guide the audience through the supportive infrastructure available to support collaboration and commercialisation with industry partners</li><li>Highlight the importance of partnering with industry to enable innovation</li><li>Launch the Innovator Training Scheme e-learning materials available via the Lifelong Learning Platform</li><li>Provide an opportunity for networking between attendees</li></ul>Audience: Clinical and academic colleagues active in research and looking for support on how to work collaboratively with industry across the Greater Manchester research ecosystem.Please note the proposed agenda is subject to change.
