Great session this morning exploring the @InventionRooms - we even got goody bags!

[Michael Eades @DrMichaelEades]

Good to catch up with @LondonPENetwork yesterday eve. Interesting chats around the table, including about whether public engagement sector is mimicking some of the worst bits of HE more broadly: rankings, inventing awards to give one another, marketisation, etc... Lots to ponder.

[London PEN @LondonPENetwork]

@nattatouillez We’re glad you enjoyed it, the chance to come together and share ideas & experience is so important for PE Professionals!!

[Dr Natt Day (Dilemma Framework) @nattatouillez]

Did enjoy my first breakfast meeting with the @LondonPENetwork this morning-- despite us all being a little sodden. It's good to know there's a lot of us out there, hidden away in various corners of different research institutions.

[Michael Eades @DrMichaelEades]

If you're Bristol based (or thereabouts) you should go to this....

[LondonSciCommSocials @SciCommSocLDN]
