Knowledge Exchange Event Fund

The Knowledge Exchange Event Fund is designed to support activities that aim to maximise the impact of the mathematical sciences by bringing academics together with external partners, including representatives from industry, the third sector and the public sector. This scheme is ideal for running study groups, developing and strengthening collaborations, forming communities and partnerships, sharing best practice, and more. Each knowledge exchange activity is bespoke and can be tailored to suit the unique aims and objectives of the event. Supported activities will be hosted at the ICMS and should aim to benefit the wider mathematical sciences community. ICMS provides funding for accommodation, catering and contributions towards travel expenses, and staff can make local arrangements, facilitate delivery of the activity and provide support to organisers to ensure the event is tailored to meet their needs. Successful applicants are required to submit a summary report within one month of the event taking place and are expected to keep the ICMS updated on any further activities, outputs or impact generated by this support.
