About this lecture

In her lecture, “Unleashing Potential: The Role of STEM Academic Entrepreneurialism in Modern Higher Education”, Professor Lisa-Dionne Morris examines how academics increasingly engage in entrepreneurial activities within higher education, such as commercialising their expertise, creating start-ups, and forming industry partnerships. These efforts aim to harness intellectual capital and foster a culture of innovation in academic settings.

The lecture will take place in the School of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Leeds, with arrival and registration from 3:45pm in the foyer, and the lecture commencing at 4pm in Lecture Theatre A. This will be followed by a drinks reception in the atrium of the Sir William Henry Bragg Building from 5pm.
