Phew, that's been a busy week but what a way to end with a very generous discussion from Claire at @brownejacobson about their Knowledge Transfer Partnership with @UniofNottingham. We learnt so much, thank you. Have a great weekend all! It's raining in Sheffield though :-(

An amazing project for Sheffield!
We had a fantastic time looking around Canada House with our partners @harmony_works on Tuesday, we’re looking forward to being in the building more over the coming years! 👀🏢🎶
Well, we enjoyed that... The first of our KE coffee catch-ups in the Engineering Heartspace. Wide-ranging convo from Theory of Change to SHAPE commercialisation. And someone sharing how they are missing working with us KE folk. Lovely! #KnowledgeExchange
Absolutely. Exciting times. There's so much coming together and a great feeling of momentum for tackling the things that still need to be done for a greener, fairer and wealthier city in every way. We all have our parts to play.
Do check out the @PraxisAuril Arts and Humanities and Social Sciences Community of Practice ... Good things are happening!
