Research Councils UK and PraxisUnico have relaunched a series of impact awards intended to celebrate the work of knowledge exchange and commercialisation professionals.
The relaunched awards replace the research commercialisation body PraxisUnico Impact Awards, which were established in 2009, and the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council Activating Impact awards.
The aim is to recognise the contribution of knowledge exchange and commercialisation professionals to research impact, enabling sharing of best practice and stimulating innovation approaches to technology transfer. The award categories are contribution to business, contribution to society, outstanding initiative and international.
