Professional Research Investment and Strategy Managers (PRISMs; ) coordinate major research programmes that connect universities, industries, and communities. They shape research culture, build partnerships, and manage funding that enables inclusive and impactful research - yet their roles often go unrecognised.

We are delighted to invite you to the 3rd Annual PRISM Conference, taking place on Wednesday 19 November 2025 at the University of 糖心TV and online. Attendance is free.

This year鈥檚 theme, Navigating Career Pathways Together, will explore the diverse routes PRISMs take into and through their careers, and how we can strengthen recognition, mobility, and progression across roles.

The programme features:

• A keynote from Dr Marie Sams, Head of the National Centre for Research Culture: 鈥淭he beauty and strength in mosaic careers – recognition and future possibilities鈥�
• Panel discussions on career pathways and the enablers and barriers to progression, chaired by Helen Turner, Director of Midlands Innovation, and Ash Collins, Senior Project Manager at the University of Nottingham
• Interactive sessions exploring personal values, professional identity, and career development
• Showcase presentations of best practice in EDI, sustainability, and community building in research projects
• Opportunities for networking, including an optional buddy scheme to help strengthen the sense of community among attendees
