UIIN February Newsletter
Dear UIIN friend,
After receiving an impressive number of abstract submissions for the 10th annual UIIN conference, we are excited to announce that we have added an extra day to the conference schedule. This means the conference will run from June 13-15, 2022, covering 75+ presentations from leading experts in academia and practice, workshops, social events and program alumni meetings! We can’t wait to share this with you, so make sure you register soon and take advantage of the super early-bird discounts.

Moreover, February marked the end of the pilot phase of the Spanning Boundaries Training Programme. We are incredibly proud of the 100+ participants throughout Europe that participated in our two training cohorts, and the progress they made with their projects aimed at breaking down the barriers between academia and industry.

Read further for more insights, project resources and exciting community news and we look forward to having you with us soon again.
