NEVER WASTE A CRISIS - LESSONS LEARNED!

Thursday 26 - Monday 30 November 2020
A virtual event hosted by ARMS

This first ARMS virtual conference picks up this theme to focus not so much on the difficulties of 2020, but on the lessons we have learned, the things we have changed and the emergence of "a new normal." What will we retain from the past in this new normal, what will we discard?

Never waste a crisis! A commonly repeated phrase throughout this year and one which applies to us like never before! We are living through a once in a generation crisis (or so we hope)! And yet, history shows us that times of crisis often also result in increased change and innovation for good!

As the world around us rapidly changes, research management has also been required to change - to be more agile, responsive and connected. How are individuals and the sector responding to challenges the pandemic has created? From crisis management to opportunities for innovation.

Scheduled across 3 days Thursday 26 - Monday 30 November, this ARMS online event will provide the chance to hear from key funding agencies, be inspired by panel sessions addressing current issues and participate in interactive virtual networking.
