Who should attend?

The course is principally for people who are already working in Knowledge Exchange (KE) but don’t feel completely comfortable or knowledgeable about all aspects of technology transfer/research commercialisation, as they won’t have done the job long enough &/or have experienced enough projects to learn from.

You may also be new to KE, with the level of experience of attendees generally 0-3 years.  Some will have more experience, or have held other roles which have given them knowledge &/or skills of relevance i.e. working in industry R&D, sales and marketing or contract and negotiation experience. This means that some delegates will already be aware (and perhaps in some depth) of the content of one or more of the sessions but will have little or no knowledge of other aspects – this course offers everyone a basic grounding across all key aspects of the job.

Whilst delegates will largely be from UK universities and other research institutions of varying levels of research activity, other organisations represented are publicly funded research institutes, funding bodies and companies.  There are often several international delegates also attending the course.

This course is also suitable for those in other teams such as contracts management and finance who support this process.

PLEASE NOTE: There may be a requirement for delegates to undertake some pre-course work/reading before the course begins.
