Join us for a chance to learn about the UK Research and Innovation (UKRI FLF), a flagship funding opportunity that supports the future leaders of research and innovation. This webinar will present case studies from current Future Leaders Fellows working in businesses and Catapults. Join us to hear about how FLF has supported their careers in research and innovation and find out about your opportunity to apply to the FLF in 2024.
This online event will provide first-hand advice on the application and interview process from fellows who have successfully applied for funding.
