People & Excellence: Celebrating Achievements in Knowledge Exchange & Innovation 2024

Celebrating Achievements in Knowledge Exchange and Innovation 2024

The 2024 People and Excellence celebration of achievements in knowledge exchange and innovation at University of Glasgow took place on 21st November. This sold-out event, sponsored by Uzma Khan, Vice-Principal Innovation & Economic Development, and Professor Chris Pearce, Vice-Principal Research & Knowledge Exchange, provided a valuable opportunity to recognise impactful people and projects at University of Glasgow.

We hosted a showcase to celebrate the contributions to knowledge exchange, innovation, and impact that all members of the University community make. We highlighted achievements by staff and students from all four Colleges, presented our expert support system across the , and celebrated the University’s links to place through a programme of activities including lightning talks, videos, tabletop and freestanding displays and more, all around a 'town square' theme that celebrated Glasgow.

The event provided opportunity to celebrate the professional staff who support University researchers in their knowledge exchange, engagement, innovation and impact endeavours.

Researchers across the University contributed to a short video and a digital Wall of Celebration by sharing how colleagues from professional services have made a difference to their knowledge exchange and innovation journeys.
