FREE meal and drink at Wates House! 🍻 – Calling all entrepreneurial Surrey PGRs 🤓
This message is sent on behalf of Dr Will Lovegrove, Director of Innovation Strategy
We need your help to PROMOTE INNOVATION to our budding entrepreneurial Surrey PhD students 🤓
We’re running a special virtual event to showcase upcoming opportunities to our PGRs, to kickstart the conversation around how they can commercialise their research and create more impact. This is something they have been longing for: how to deliver wider and positive societal impact ✊
The Surrey-hosted event will be next week, 4:00-5:30pm Friday 21st January 2022, so SIGN UP NOW!
We’ve got a range of speakers:
- Olivia Ash, Hub Manager at Conception X
- One of our Surrey students from last year’s cohort to share his experiences
- Moe Ahmed, PhD Space Propulsion
- Two of our enterprising Surrey academics;
- Minal Patel, EngD Materials & Co-Founder of LabCycle
- (soon-to-be-Dr) Eva Bestelink, previously PhD in the ATI & Co-Inventor of the multimodal transistor
This event is virtual, but we’re offering a FREE main meal and drink at Wates House for each PGR who attends, plus for each of their fellow PGRs they bring along! 🍻 This may also apply for future in-person events 🥳
