Now entering its third year Creating a Scientific Superpower continues to drive dynamic debate with a world-class speaker line-up and more than 500 key stakeholders in UK innovation.
This year’s conference will explore what’s needed in a new UK industrial strategy, how we create an environment that not only attracts global talent but also supports them from startup phases to IPO.
