Thursday 12 September 2024 | 16:30 – 18:30 | Clerici Studio, Clerici Building, Headington Campus, Oxford Brookes University
Through a three-year PhD research study at Oxford Brookes Business School, in collaboration with Advanced Oxford, Oxford Brookes University have examined the context, culture and practices in which employees innovate. The conclusion: the ecosystem and its companies are not sufficiently inclusive in terms of culture, structure, and practices to ensure the equality, diversity and inclusion that is needed for innovation.
Through this event, research findings will be shared, consider how they can be applied, and critically, explain how creating and promoting a culture of inclusive-innovation benefits not only employees, but also innovation outputs.
Provisional agenda:
- Arrival at 16:30 for a 17:00 start.
- Introduction: Professor Simonetta Manfredi, Director Research, Innovation and Enterprise Oxford Brookes University and Sarah Haywood, Managing Director Advanced Oxford.
- Hannah Isabelle Tornow, PhD student sponsored by Advanced Oxford at Oxford Brookes Business School, will present this new report, recommendations for action, guidance and tools, informed by her research, to increase the innovation potential of science and technology companies, regardless of their heritage or location.
- Q&A.
- Networking drinks 18:30-19:30.
