Students offer glimpse into future with SEI Research Day

The next generation of academics came together to share their projects and ideas in a Bayes Business School-inspired Strategy, Entrepreneurship, and Innovation (SEI) Research Day.

The event gave the opportunity for PhD students at London, Cambridge and Oxford-based universities to present their research and network with peers and faculty.

This year's event welcomed more than 60 faculty and students from Bayes, Imperial College Business School, King's College London Business School, London Business School, The University of Cambridge Judge Business School, UCL School of Management, and The University of Oxford Saïd Business School.

The research presented varied from early-stage work to more developed ideas, with academics from across Bayes attending the sessions.
