Knowledge Transfer Activities at ICMS

By October 2008, ICMS will have appointed a part-time Knowledge Transfer Officer with responsibility for uncovering potential links and applications of ICMS workshops to mathematical activities in industry and commerce. The services of the Knowledge Transfer Officer will be available to all organisers to assist in:

  1. assessing whether there is a prospect of engaging industry and commerce etc, in a planned workshop and following up the prospects discovered;
  2. working to encourage wider interest, particularly from industry and commerce, in the run-up to the workshop with a view to securing participation in, and possibly support for, the event itself;
  3. ensuring that all such participants are supplied with a useful record of the workshop after the event.
