Join the monthly SPARK Community Meeting — an open and engaging forum where SPARK project teams share updates, discuss challenges, and connect with the SPARK management team. This event is ideal for academics, healthcare professionals, entrepreneurs working in translational research, and those developing therapeutics, medical devices, or diagnostics.
Valued industry partners, including Potter Clarkson, BSI, and MTIF, are welcome to attend, making this a great opportunity to network and explore potential collaborations.
Each session begins with a short presentation from one of the SPARK projects, followed by an open discussion. In celebration of Life Sciences Week, this meeting may feature a guest speaker focusing on a key topic in translational research, such as investment, regulatory pathways, or clinical trial design – watch this space!
There will also be the exciting announcement of the launch of the next application round for SPARK Cohort 3, which will now be open to applicants across the East Midlands.
Who Can Attend:
This event is free and open to anyone interested in SPARK — whether you’re looking to learn more, engage with the community, or explore translational research opportunities. No prior affiliation is required.
Additional Details:
Food and refreshments will be provided. The latter part of the event will be dedicated to informal networking.
