Event: Knowledge Transfer Partnerships taking you to net zero and beyond
Tuesday 28th March 2023 | 09:00-12:00 | Stirling Court Hotel
Our friends in Scotland’s International Environment Centre (SIEC) are running an event we thought might be of interest to you. Interested in achieving Net Zero? Want to find out more about you can do that through a Knowledge Exchange Partnership?
Then joining SIEC on 28 March at the Stirling Court Hotel is for you.
Event Details:
Given the current climate, becoming net zero may be part of your planning, but may not be a priority. And that may well be due to time and money. Two things always in short supply when you are running your business. Join Scotland’s International Environment Centre, part of the University of Stirling, to discover how you can have more of both.
We will share no nonsense insights on how to reduce your energy consumption and bills and therefore carbon footprint.
Perhaps of most interest to you will be Knowledge Transfer Partnerships. A nifty means of employing skilled staff to focus on a particular opportunity, a fraction of their salaried cost. And because change doesn’t happen overnight, the benefit of opting for one, two or three years to meet your ambition.
Sounds too good to be true? There’s more. Hear about our Help to Grow mini MBA with 90% funding and our fully funded Graduate Apprenticeship in Data Science.
The morning will take you through a series of thought provoking presentations, provide advice on business support and funding and hosts an informed panel discussion covering multiple aspects of how to become a net zero organisation, the challenges and opportunities.
Workshop: 6th March 2023, Technology & Innovation Centre, University of Strathclyde
Through funding from the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) to the Centre for Water, Environment, Sustainability and Public Health at the University of Strathclyde, Prof Ashleigh Fletcher and the Hydro Nation Chair Programme are hosting a workshop to explore interdisciplinarity between the sciences in a drive to net zero.
New research led by the University of Stirling is to explore how pollution and climate change are impacting freshwater ecosystems for the first time. Prof Andrew Tyler provides a summary of the project and its ambitions.
On 9th Nov 2022, the #HydroNationChair team welcomed award holders from the most recent rounds of the Catalyst Fund to the University of Stirling for a Mid Project Progress review meeting.
Along with colleagues from across Scottish Water, attendees heard from the 7 projects funded to date on their progress, findings and challenges before enjoying some time to network and collaborate further.
In this blog post, Prof Ashleigh Fletcher, Hydro Nation Chair Research leader Fellow who led the inaugural HNC Crucible on Process Emissions reflects on the meeting.
