This year’s conference will be held at the International Centre in Telford, 16 to 18 May – a little earlier in the year than usual, but it already promises to be another great event for professionals working in the KE sector.

Experienced KE practitioners and industry experts from the UK and around the world, volunteer their time to speak at the event, covering a wide range of current debates and issues – this year’s programme includes a diversity of topics including the Knowledge Exchange Framework, Commercialisation routes and Lessons from Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences.

Previous delegates highly valued the conference for its unique networking opportunities: a survey revealed that over 90% of delegates attend the conference for networking – which is so important within the KE sector. The conference has consistently received high ratings: 98% of asked conference delegates that the event helps them develop their skills and knowledge and 95% of delegates said that conference met, or exceeded their expectations.

Maxine Ficarra, CEO at PraxisAuril, on the Spring Conference:

"Every year we work tirelessly to provide an agenda that is both engaging and informative and to attract a vibrant and diverse group of attendees. We want delegates to learn something new and build relationships which will benefit their day to day work and their personal professional development."

The conference programme is relevant to all levels of the profession and attracts delegates from as far as China, Brazil and Australia.
