Entrepreneurial Skills for Arts and Humanities
About
You are warmly invited to join us for an extended Curious about Knowledge Exchange (CaKE) workshop exploring the concept of commercialisation as a means of creating, expanding and sustainably maintaining impact from research in the Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences and why commercialisation routes are increasingly important to funders such as AHRC.The session will cover:
• What is commercialisation in the context of Arts & Humanities?
• Why commercialisation is an increasingly important route to impact, and valued by funders
• AHRCs renewed focus on commercialisation & upcoming strategy
• Why social ventures are an increasingly important vehicle for sustaining impact
• What is Lancaster doing to support Arts & Humanities commercialisation?
• How do I figure out where to start with this?
The session is suitable for colleagues at any career stage who want to either find out more and explore opportunities, or who have experience of commercialisation activity that they are willing to share in order to support others just starting out on this journey.
There will be opportunity to ask questions, share your own ideas with colleagues and plan your own potential next steps.
Feel free to bring some lunch to eat in the session. Cake, fruit and hot drinks will be provided.
