April 2023

Event date: 18th May 2023

HGF are sponsors of The Business of Science Conference 2023 on the 18th of May at Cloth Hall Court, University of Leeds.

The commercialisation of science and innovation continues to be fundamental to the economic growth of the UK and its economy. With increasing investment into STEM and the drive to increase relevant skills, as reflected in UK Government’s plans to increase R&D spend and the desire for the UK to be a “Science Superpower”, this is a perfect time to again welcome the conference to Yorkshire where the relationships between Science, Innovation, Business and Skills is paramount to the region.

HGF Partner & Patent Attorney Andrew Camenisch is moderating the panel session ‘The Business of Growth‘. HGF Partner & Patent Attorney Dr Jerry Bretherton, Trade Mark Director Tanya Waller and Patent Attorney Will Paget will be attending the conference.
