ECSB – SEAANZ Webinar “Researching with practical impact – Making entrepreneurship and SME research relevant for policy makers”
June 7 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm UTC+2

How can we make a practical difference with our research and contribute to positive societal change? For entrepreneurship and SME scholars informing and shaping policy and practices is often a key goal. However, as researchers we get trained to do research, but not how to generate and demonstrate impact i.e. the wider economic and societal benefits of our research, which often leaves us ill-prepared to contribute to the growing impact agenda.

In this webinar we explore what impact is and why it is relevant. Drawing on scholars and practictioner from different national contexts, we gain valuable insights into how to achieve practical impact for different policy stakeholders and we draw lessons on how to develop relevant impact pathways for our research and how to evidence the benefit gained by different stakeholders.
