Runninghot! 2010 Workshop
1-3 November 2010, Te Papa
Confident and vibrant research communities help drive the world’s most successful economies and societies. Creativity and vision are required to undertake and invest in research that improves New Zealand’s knowledge, wellbeing, wealth and environment. The immediate challenges, both in New Zealand and globally, are to address the different forms of value that can be derived from our current research, and to identify practical ways of enhancing and realising the benefits of future research. Runninghot! 2010 will address these challenges.
This conference will connect emerging and established researchers from the sciences, humanities and creative arts with leaders from the government, business and community sectors.
Runninghot! 2010 will provide a unique opportunity for participants from different disciplines and institutions to:
- Engage with varied perspectives on the different forms of value generated by research;
- explore the benefits across the continuum from basic to applied research;
- discuss how commercialisation should best influence New Zealand’s research activities;
- identify innovative ways of conducting research to enhance its value;
- understand how research informs and frames evidence-based policy.
