Sharing Research for Business Excellence
School of Business Research Showcase 2022
The inaugural Sharing Research for Business Excellence event is a platform that presents the latest research from the UNSW Canberra School of Business to government officials, industry representatives, Defence stakeholders, and the broader ACT community.
School of Business academics showcased research through various formats, including series of lively, pre-recorded 2 minute research pitches about current and recent research projects. These pitches were complemented by research posters and displays of publications, collectively demonstrating the School's wide-ranging research capabilities and achievements.
Attendees had the opportunity to directly engage with researchers present at the event. This interaction allowed participants to inquire about the showcased research, seek potential collaborations, and explore avenues for engagement in a direct and personalised manner.
This year's showcase took place on October 27th in the Peninsula room at the National Museum of Australia. Below, you will find a selection of research outputs and photographs captured during the event.
