Networking
Technology Innovation Forums
UCL Advances hosts regular Technology Innovation Forum
events focussing on science led innovation and future technologies
which provide networking opportunities
between researchers, business leaders and investors.
The purpose
of the events is to stimulate new
interactions - particularly between communities that haven't engaged
before - which may lead to new relationships, collaborations, and
commercial products for the benefit of society.
