About Entrepreneurship events
We run a series of Entrepreneurship Masterclasses and for staff and students - join us to hear from inspiring speakers, make new connections, and gain insight into the journey of translating research from the lab into real life
Our Masterclasses are delivered by inspirational speakers, including physicists, who have commercialised their research, either applying their know how to industry or starting a business. We also have speakers from the entrepreneurial community who will be sharing how to develop an entrepreneurial mind-set and the importance of networking with the wider community.
