Solutions in hand for REF 2029 @AnneMortimerOx @ref2029

[Dame Jessica Corner @JessicaCorner]

We need multiple actions on this, REF 2029 encourages different kinds of research outputs that are much more difficult to ‘fake’. What will you be putting forward? https://t.co/LmXow5vMUv

[The hidden REF @HiddenRef]

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.

So pleased to announce Research England Development funding today for this exciting new collaboration supporting university spinouts

[Evelyn Welch @evelynwelch2013]

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 are pleased to be continuing our important work to support best practice in university commercialisation

[Research England @ResEngland]

As set out in the government's response to the independent review of spinouts, we'll support their work with universities, investors & founders to establish commercialisation best practice by publishing a list of adopting universities & enhancing data: https://t.co/mJmYRHUWjy 🧵

[Research England @ResEngland]

Which also builds on our work comparing the UK with leading university entrepreneurial ecosystems in the US and Europe – and developing Research England as an ecosystem builder: https://t.co/htZnV48nwp https://t.co/htZnV48nwp

[Research England @ResEngland]

Our policy leadership in this space builds on funding to develop university ecosystems through our Connecting Capability Fund and our expert commercialisation group: https://t.co/4DAdk2Bgmn https://t.co/4DAdk2Bgmn

[Research England @ResEngland]

We supported @TenU_News’s international tech transfer collaboration and their development of the USIT best practice guide for life science spinouts deals: https://t.co/LuNePDZ9hI

This guide gives all parties negotiating spinout deals a strong and fair foundation to start from.

[Dame Jessica Corner @JessicaCorner]

Our funding continues to underpin the crucial role of universities in commercialising research

[Research England @ResEngland]

Our flexible £280M Higher Education Innovation Funding helps universities commercialise research by supporting tech transfer, specialist seed funding, incubators, accelerators and entrepreneurship training, and engaging with business and users through other knowledge exchange.

[Dame Jessica Corner @JessicaCorner]

Very good to hear @Jeremy_Hunt launch this report today and his appreciation of the importance of universities to our future economy.

[Research England @ResEngland]

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: https://t.co/mJmYRHVu96 🧵👇

[Dame Jessica Corner @JessicaCorner]

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.
