History shows that research can significantly affect society and the economy. Real-world, non-academic impact of the work produced by researchers here at the Business School was recognised and celebrated on 12 November 2020 as part of the School’s Excellence Awards event.

The participants’ submissions were assessed by the judging panel for the magnitude of the impact, and for their sectorial and geographical effects.

The Faculty Research Committee thanks the judges for their time and participation in the assessment and decision-making process for the Research Impact Competition 2020.
