We talk and exchange a lot of ideas with our peers about programmes, interaction with the audience, etc. but despite having businesses to run, revenues to gain and business models to write, we don’t discuss the business behind the science engagement activities we organise. Working with partners is something a lot of us struggle with.
This session will share anecdotes and experiences we have in working with commercial partners as well as our challenges and difficulties. Presenters will briefly share their own experiences, followed by roundtable discussions in smaller groups. Participants are invited to share their experience and ask questions so that at the end of the session we will all have a catalogue of advice, expertise and recommendations to use in our organisations.
