CASSCS colleagues are warmly invited to attend a lecture on research impact by Dr Mark Mann (University of Oxford)

LECTURE: “What the future could hold”

All welcome; no registration necessary

For a 40 minute presentation we will present example-driven illustrations of what you could do with innovations and new ideas emerging from SSAH. Mark Mann Limited has a bank of examples from which it can draw upon from a variety of universities to show how the different commercialisation (and broader knowledge exchange) pathways can be used to grow impact from an idea. These examples will be chosen so that they best align with Galway’s research base. Here we will cover all the main modes of transfer used in SSAH through examples and what academics might need to think about with their projects.

  • Consultancy
  • Startups and Social Enterprise
  • Franchises
  • Services
  • Partnerships
  • Policy interventions
  • Public engagement

The target will be to inspire and broaden the horizons of the attendees by convincing them that they could look at their research in a different way. The key to the session is to not focus on intellectual property but to tell stories that will stick and are relevant to Galway’s academic research. This will then be followed by 20 minutes of questions
