Small-scale funding; BIG difference - nurturing impact partnerships through seed-funded activity
Facilitated by Professional Services staff working on seed funding initiatives across the university, this panel discussion brings together academics who have recently received internal seed-funding (e.g., AHRC IAA, Knowledge Exchange & Impact Fellowships, HEIF) to develop impact activities through knowledge exchange with external partner organisations. The session will spotlight a range of sectors and award experiences, including highpoints and challenges.
Panellists will share their journeys of how they have leveraged these funds to forge and enhance partnerships, advancing their projects towards impactful outcomes. Following these presentations, the speakers will engage in a panel discussion and Q&A session. They'll share their experiences of working with partners from various sectors, reflecting on the challenges and triumphs, and exploring common threads within their various efforts. The discussion will also be open to the attendees.
