Dear All,<br>
<br>
There is a government funded initiative to run some events to
support Knowledge Exchange development in Scotland - see emails
below.<br>
<br>
The organisers are looking for input from individuals as to what
they would like to see in such events.<br>
<br>
There is a link below to a 5 minute survey where views can be easily
input.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>
Paul<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">AURIL has for many years been
successfully promoting the sharing of best practice at
regional networking events around the UK. Recently AURIL
has taken steps to join all these individual networks up
and allow this knowledge to be shared between networks.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The recent launch of Innovation
Scotland by the Scottish Funding Council included a
desire to see best practice shared more extensively
within the KE community in Scotland.
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">AURIL and Interface have agreed to
work together to support the KE community in Scotland
and develop a network that allows individual members to
share best practice.
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This questionnaire seeks to gauge
your level of interest in this activity, the nature of
topics you might like to discuss and the support
mechanisms you would like to see develop. The Research
and Commercialisation Director's Group is also helping
us to help shape the format.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please feel free to pass the survey
link onto anyone you think would be interested and we
will share the results of the survey with the community.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I hope that you will feel able to
support this initiative.</p>
