After a record number of submissions to the Social Sciences Business Engagement Seed Fund, three outstanding and innovative projects have been selected for funding by an interdisciplinary panel. Congratulations to Professor Rebecca Eynon (Oxford Internet Institute), Dr James Robson (Department of Education) and Dr Felix-Anselm Van-Lier (Blavatnik School of Government), whose projects will receive funding.
The Social Sciences Division’s Business Engagement Seed Fund is designed to support researchers in the early stages of collaborations with business-related external stakeholders, such as private sector, industry bodies, and not-for-profit organisations. Through such partnerships, it aims to advance the application of social science research in new and innovative ways, address key business and industrial challenges, and explore new opportunities to engage business in the research agenda.
