REF 2028 becomes REF 2029... This gives us more time to make sure that some of the positive changes to the REF are picked up by HEIs. wonkhe.com/wonk-corner/ref-d…

So pleased to announce Research England Development funding today for this exciting new collaboration supporting university spinouts
Great to be with @JessicaCorner today to discuss @NCUBtweets' new report and celebrate the announcement of @UKRI_News investment for a 3rd incubator space for @ScienceCreates in Bristol's Temple Quarter. Super @BristolUni example of an innovative private-public partnership.

We supported @TenU_News’s international tech transfer collaboration and their development of the USIT best practice guide for life science spinouts deals: ten-u.org/news/the-usit-guid… This guide gives all parties negotiating spinout deals a strong and fair foundation to start from.

Very good to hear @Jeremy_Hunt launch this report today and his appreciation of the importance of universities to our future economy.
We're pleased the independent review of spinouts, published today, recognises the vital contribution universities and their spinouts make to the UK’s science and technology superpower ambition, as well as Research England's role in supporting them: gov.uk/government/publicatio… 🧵👇

This real and already present challenge has shaped our thinking for #REF2028. Though we don’t have all the answers and are still seeking feedback. Generative AI makes fraud an existential threat to science researchprofessionalnews.com…
