IIPP Conversations 2024-25

The UCL Institute for Innovation and Public Purpose (IIPP) hosts a conversation series rethinking the economy, government and policymaking, bringing together experts from across the globe to present their latest research. IIPP Conversations takes place across the academic year. New seminars will be announced regularly on this page.

IIPP Conversations provides a vibrant research space focused on addressing the social, technological, environmental, and economic challenges we currently face – with awareness of and attention to society’s many conflicts and inequalities. The series showcases IIPP research, engaging with academics around the globe to explore fresh and innovative ideas and solutions, utilising different tools and capabilities not only to co-create and co-shape markets but also to think beyond market principles.

Join us for our conversation series focusing on the research of experts from IIPP and beyond.
