Welcome to ACMX, the new home of Research, Knowledge Exchange and Innovation at [ACM]. We’re excited to have a space to share some of the projects and initiatives happening across our community.
AC[M]X is a new function at ACM – this is the first year that we have been in receipt of HEIF funding. Our remit is to meaningfully connect people, ideas and expertise across our institution, with each other and the wider world. We work alongside our colleagues and alumni as well as businesses, communities charities, organisations and other external collaborators to explore challenges, develop new concepts and create opportunities with social and economic impact.
Problem solving
We believe that the most interesting work starts with a question, conversation or an idea and sometimes simply bringing our community together can spark new ways of seeing and doing things.
Celebrating and sharing our creativity
Whether you’re already working with an external partner, developing a research project, responding to an industry brief or simply have an idea you’d like to explore with colleagues, we’d love to hear about it.
Making your innovation visible
We are in the process of undertaking a stakeholder mapping exercise – to track and understand our partnerships and external relationships, we will be visiting each campus to speak with teams about this as we create the partnerships map.
So, come and say hi, share what you’re working on, and let’s explore what we can do together as we build our network and share our knowledge with each other and the wider world acmx@acm.ac.uk
In this month’s newsletter, you’ll find highlights from across AC[M]’s research, knowledge exchange and innovation activity, celebrating the people, partnerships and projects helping to shape the future of the creative industries see links to latest national funding calls and a link to our latest event.
