Bringing an academic or research innovation event to the region means creating a platform for knowledge exchange, collaboration, and visibility for the outstanding work taking place in Birmingham and the wider West Midlands. It helps to accelerate regional development, attract new talent, and foster innovation ecosystems.
Joining the Conference Ambassador Network is a valuable opportunity to champion the region, connect with diverse stakeholders, and promote Birmingham as a leading hub for academic, professional, and industry engagement. I look forward to contributing to the region’s growth and facilitating new partnerships through high-impact events.
