The Enterprising Researcher podcast explores how social scientists are using the value of their research to build great careers, work with business for the exchange of ideas and knowledge, and make a real difference to the economy and society. Aimed at all researchers interested in practical tips and ideas on how they can take their first steps towards engaging with business, the podcast hears from researchers, consultants, businesses and students about their personal experiences and journeys involving university and business life. Presented by former BBC journalist Chris Garrington and produced with support from the ESRC Impact Acceleration Account at the University of Sussex through the Business Boost project, Series One explores the changing face of academia, how businesses can benefit from social science expertise, the opportunities, rewards and challenges that face researchers who engage with business and the help that’s available. Every episode is packed with useful ideas and pointers on how to become an Enterprising Researcher!
