Winner of prize draw!

Following the recent closure of the Research and Funding Blog survey, respondents choosing to leave their name were entered into a prize drawer for up to £200 towards their professional development.  We are pleased to announce the winner is Dr Claire Gwinnett from Faculty of Computing, Engineering and Sciences. Simon Dyer from Youth Enterprise selected the winner from the draw at Wednesday’s Enterprise Exchange.  We would like to take the opportunity to thank everyone responding to the survey and attending the focus group yesterday.  The team has had valuable feedback which we are now reviewing to inform our future blog developments.
