1 July - Research in Practice

A showcase of innovations from University of Bristol researchers with real world impact

Join us for a showcase of early stage innovations from University of Bristol researchers who are exploring how their ideas could develop into real world products, services, and social enterprises.

This event features participants from the Early Career Enterprise Fellowship (ECEF), a programme that supports postgraduate researchers to explore the commercial and societal potential of their research. Fellows receive funding, training, and dedicated support to help them understand markets, develop entrepreneurial skills, and test how their ideas could move beyond academia.
