Professor Crispin Coombs presenting to a lecture theatre.

Come and join us for the launch of our new Loughborough Business School Research and Innovation Themes to find out more about our research, centres and how we can work together to deliver purposeful research and create better futures.

These themes are designed to bring together researchers from across disciplines to collaborate and share insights to progress social, environmental, organisational, and economic understanding. They have been developed by our R&I team following an extensive consultation across the School.

The event will feature contributions from Professor Karen Coopman, Associate Pro-Vice Chancellor (Research & Innovation – Excellence and Focus), Professor Crispin Coombs, Associate Dean for R&I and Professor Jan Godsell, Dean of Loughborough Business School.

Our new Research and Innovation Themes are:

  • Corporate Governance and Responsible Business
  • Digital Futures and Responsible AI
  • Green and Just Transitions
  • Sustainable Development and Finance
  • Wellbeing, Inclusion, and the Future of Work
  • Productivity and Innovation

Each theme will be introduced through examples of our research and collaborations.

The event will also highlight the work of the Centre for Information Management and the UK SCALE Centre, the newest member of the MIT Global SCALE Network.

Confirmed speakers include Professor Suzana Grubnic, Professor Eva Selenko, Dr Grammatoula Papaioannou, Professor Amon Chizema, Professor Peter Kawalek and Professor Donato Masi. 

We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at this important event as we celebrate and launch these exciting new themes.
