We’re excited to announce the Key Cities Innovation Network (KCIN) as Event Partner for BEYOND 2025.
This year, BEYOND teams up with i-PLACE—KCIN’s new policy-focused gathering for place-based innovation. Together, we’ll bring together local authorities, researchers, and innovation leaders to explore how devolution, civic leadership, and research can deliver practical responses to local challenges.
Hosted at MediaCity, our joint events will spotlight the role of innovation ecosystems in shaping policy and local development.
Here a quick look at what’s taking place on Day 02 of BEYOND 2025, and at the i-PLACE event on Thursday:
