Thank You & Congratulations!

Many thanks to all our contributors and congratulations to all our Best Paper Winners. 

R&D Management Conference 2021

 

Inspired by this year's theme "Innovation in an Era of Disruption" we look forward to a busy online programme comprising academically focused and practice relevant tracks, workshops and plenaries. 

If you need some time out from this busy programme of events you are welcome to join our Zen Room where you can browse the videos to relax with some Qi Gong, Meditation or Yoga. It’s open right through both days so please do take advantage. You can also let your hair down in the evening with two social events: R&D Ceilidh and Strathclyde Cocktails.

The conference will run via our OnAIR Platform. Watch the video below for an introduction or check out our helpful guides and FAQs.
