Communities of Practice

The Innovation Insights Hub was specifically founded by UAL to research the contribution of the arts to business. We are committed to developing models and tools to support arts driven innovations. In this context attention is paid to the development of evaluation methodologies for social innovation as well as to the definition of policy guidelines to facilitate collaboration between arts and business, promoting an interdisciplinary culture combining creative and strategic thinking.

This event was held as part of UAL's Communities of Practice initiative, for which the Hub has committed to focus its discourse on evaluation methodologies. Within the discussion, this event provides an opportunity for academics, students, university management staff and invited industry guests to share experiences of evaluation methodologies used in collaborative projects.
