Inspiring audiences to innovate and be critical thinkers are aspirations shared by science centers and educators. But what role do our teams of science communicators play in inspiring this spirit of innovation? What spaces and programmes foster innovation? How is this measured? And what methods are used to encourage our teams to ‘think outside the box’ while retaining a keen audience focus and commitment to delivering quality learning experiences?

This panel session will explore different approaches, trends, solutions and lessons learned. The session will bring together speakers from Europe, the Middle East and America, allowing for diverse cultural perspectives and a spread of different experiences.
