This year’s Norwich Health Innovation Conference will be
held on Wednesday 4 June from 9am-4.30pm at the John Innes Conference Centre at
Norwich Research Park.
Following the highly successful inaugural event last year, this
year’s conference promises to be even better. You’ll get to hear first-hand
about the very latest in research and innovation taking place at the University
of East Anglia (UEA), Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital (NNUH) and across
the rest of Norwich Research Park, directly from the people who are working on
it.
The conference is a ‘must attend’ for researchers, health
practitioners, industry professionals, IP professionals and investors. Attendees
will have the opportunity to explore the broad areas of internationally-leading
research activity being carried out at Norwich Research Park much of which will
be showcased through case studies to demonstrate research commercialisation,
spin out formation and collaborations with industry.
The event will also provide an excellent opportunity to
network with a wide range of academia and industry professionals.
The full agenda is still being finalised but will include
sessions on Research Spotlight, Translation Focus and Commercialisation.
Keynote addresses and Q&A panels will also form an important part of the
programme.
Dr Nicola Hancock, Associate Pro-Vice-Chancellor for
Innovation; Associate Professor in Physiotherapy at UEA, who opened and chaired
last year’s conference said, “Last year’s event was inspiring, energising and
really motivating. It felt like we took a huge step towards our goal of
advancing and showcasing innovation within and around UEA and the wider Norwich
Research Park campus.”
