This seminar investigates the importance of these non-financial impacts, such as social, cultural, and environmental contributions. Additionally, it suggests a very simple but still useful methodology that can be employed to assess and address these impacts. This seminar also highlights the integral role of KE professionals in bridging academia with industry and society, emphasising their efforts in promoting and measuring these impacts holistically.

Brechtje Vreenegoor is manager of the KTO Wageningen University and Research. She discussed ‘servitisation’ of open-source models.

And do we even know what works: how do we determine success?
In this Tea with ASTP Clare Dillon, InnerSource Researcher at the University of Galway, covered where academic OSPOs are located within institutions, their goals and the activities OSPO staff engage in.
