<span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: normal;">A lot of our interaction with companies or public bodies has been severely disrupted by the effects of the current Corona Virus outbreak. Our Innovation and Industry Engagement (IIE) unit would like to get
a better understanding at what will be needed to repair, renew and reinvigorate our engagement with industry. To understand what help is really required by ourselves and by our partners, Olga Kozlova, head of our IIE has put together a wee questionnaire.
