InFrame Culture Catalyst Fund: Ideation Workshop (Online)

Curious about the Culture Catalyst Fund? Have the spark of an idea but need some time and space to develop it further? Want to meet others who are interested in applying and see what collaborations might be possible? Join the Research and Innovation team for an Ideation Workshop.

You will have the chance to meet with peers who are exploring ideas for the Culture Catalyst Fund, and have time to dive deeper into your idea and craft it further alongside others. You will also have the chance to ask questions about the Fund and find out if it's the right opportunity for you.

The Culture Catalyst Fund (CCF) represents a significant effort to transform research culture by providing financial support for innovative ideas and emerging research leaders across the Universities of Edinburgh, Glasgow and St Andrews. Led by the University of St Andrews, this fund aims to democratise research leadership, stimulate creativity, and test the co-created Collegial Research Leadership Framework. The fund targets researchers from diverse backgrounds, particularly those outside traditional researcher groups, aligning with InFrame's goal of expanding research leadership.

The Community Knowledge Hub, managed by the University of Edinburgh, will provide comprehensive support for funded projects, including pre- and post-award assistance, community building, and knowledge sharing. Through this initiative, the CCF seeks to transform research culture by supporting innovative ideas and emerging leaders across Scottish universities.

This event is for anyone interested in applying for the Fund and developing an idea, so please feel free to attend even if you don't quite have an idea yet and are just interested in the opportunity. You do not need to be a researcher to attend. Anyone who works at one of the partnering Universities who has an idea, or wishes to change research culture for the better, is invited to join this session and apply to the Fund.

We are also hosting an in-person workshop at the University of Glasgow on Tuesday 10 December. Find out more and book a slot through Ticket Tailor.
