Our Annual Associate Directors Seminar, held at Warwick University - one of our longest-standing academia partners - was a great success, covering many important and topical subjects. The seminar's main focus was building the 'Institute of Tomorrow', working Collaboratively with a select number of key stakeholders being the positive way to do this. Our new vision and mission were key elements in our discussions, as well as how structured collaboration addresses the challenges we face today.

Being a member-focused organisation, we also looked at how we add value to our members, both in terms of what we do now and what we can do going forwards. Professor Paul Connor joined in the discussion, detailing how he is helping us build our new communication and Marketing strategy.
